The last couple of months Animech has been working on a project for Willab Garden. They wanted a configurator in 3D that would allow their customers to view, configure, and order green houses. The user can choose from different models, sizes, colors, and glass types. There are also various additions, such as different doors, windows, shelves, and decorations that the user can select.
There is a massive amount of logic going on behind the scenes here, in order to allow all these different choices. We did not model and export entire green houses, since that would mean that every possible combination of model, size, doors, and windows needed to be created. Instead, we modeled, baked, and exported each beam, or profile, individually. The same goes for all the doors, windows and shelves. This meant that, after a bit of programming, we could build green houses with an arbitrary size.
In addition to creating many of the different profiles, doors, windows, etc., I was also responsible for creating a set of rendered images. These images show the different glass and color types that are available. You can view these images by hovering over different info-buttons in the app, or look at the image down below.
I was also tasked with creating proof-of-concept renders for Willab Garden’s green houses. One of them can be seen at the top.
Take a look at the live application over at Willab’s website. No plugins required, hooray for WebGL!
