Kuala Lumpur, 17th March 2022 – SofaX has introduced a first-of-its-kind mobile application that enables users to virtually design their homes and spaces, making shopping for furniture and other decorative elements more convenient and streamlined. The platform excels as a design tool that provides access to more than 1500 3D floor plan renders, inspired by real-estate projects in the Klang Valley, allowing users to explore combinations of furniture and fittings easily from 150 brands before making a purchase.

Social distancing, lockdowns and the mere existence of Covid-19 have brought upon the necessity and increased use of virtual reality experiences. People have become more accustomed to making the most of remote experiences. SofaX also offers their users access to the portfolios of 100 interior designers that they can explore and hire. The app simplifies all aspects of designing a home.

Leveraging virtual reality technology, SofaX gives homeowners an accurate preview of how specific pieces of furniture would look like in their spaces before making a single furniture purchase. By utilising the in-app features, users can bring their interior design ideas to life, exercising their creativity by mixing and matching furniture choices. Effectively helping them save time and cost as they furnish their homes according to individual styles and preferences, the app takes into account size, design, and colour, among others. This also closely mimics the experience of walking through one’s home and space, while determining furniture placement and design. Moreover, it ensures the accuracy of dimensions for any given floorplan, reassuring homeowners that the furniture purchased will always be a good fit for their spaces, thus enabling a seamless in-store shopping experience.

“The increased understanding and use of virtual tools over the course of the pandemic has allowed people to be more open to using a visualisation tool like SofaX. Our focus is to capitalise on the highly experiential metaverse space that exists now to help homeowners build their dream spaces on any budget. Our app is designed to complement the physical experience because our priority is to promote the use of phy-gital experiences to assist users in making the best choices for them with ease. SofaX is designed to offer users a better experience at showrooms and this is a major perk for our partnering brands and ourselves because as a team we are able to provide a more efficient furniture shopping experience,” explained Mac Lai, Chief Operating Officer of SofaX.

“While we believe that furniture shopping should be conducted in-store because many aspects of a piece will be lost in translation from real life to virtual reality, we are also aware that many people do not have the luxury to take the time out of their day to explore numerous stores looking for specific pieces of furniture or worrying about whether their choices would fit their spaces. Hence we have ensured that our tool offers an extensive variety of brands and products, to allow users to find everything that they may need,” added Mac Lai.

SofaX is also working towards building partnerships with developers that will allow them to offer in-app credits to buyers and enhance the new homeowners furnishing experience by providing them with cash rebates and promotions as well access to a 3D floor plan of their home.
