energy into the design where texture, light, reflection, shadow and sheen show their effect on the design as it is being constructed. Crucial aspects of a room’s design that can be difficult to depict come to life, with lighting being just one example. With Virtual Worlds Professional V ersion 8 lighting designs can be created with confidence. Position the light fitting, edit the brightness, colour and cone angle of the lamp to see the immediate effect, all through rendering presentations in real-time, enabling customers to see the result of the changes for themselves. If you did want to go to the trouble of creating a photo-realistic render later, this is a great visual guide to get you there quicker and a real save from the traditional hit and miss approach to achieving the perfect lighting scheme. Peace of mind in the products being chosen is
easily achieved too, helping to identify and reduce specification errors and product returns. Areas of design such as material choice can incur unintentional mistakes, as deciphering the difference between matt and gloss on furniture, for example, can be a challenge with CAD. With Version 8, such material errors grab the attention straight away and are visibly very clear, saving time in checking and the potential for inconvenient product returns further on in the project. Such is the clarity of the rendering that woodgrain depth comes to life, opposed to flat and lifeless textures that CAD users have been used to until now. Glass textures and colours, metal finishes, paint finishes, all are given definition.
Even the clocks from the ‘Props’ catalogue
run on time in Virtual Worlds: Until you turn to night mode that is. Now the clocks roll forward to 10:30 pm, the sun goes down and the lights reveal the beautiful lighting scheme ready for live editing. Native 3D systems, such as Virtual Worlds
Professional, that enable designers to create room sets within a 3D environment, also make the transition into virtual reality seamless, quick and simple. Virtual Worlds enables the designer to jump between 3D and 4D at any stage of the design process without the need for lengthy file conversions or image rendering, ensuring consumers can make informed choices for their new kitchen and bathroom by virtually experiencing it. Virtual Worlds Professional Version 8 symbolises
a new era in kbb CAD graphics, where the benefits of real-time rendering are waiting to be discovered. Please call for more information on Virtual Worlds or visit the website.
