Landscape Forms

Transforming Landscape Forms Outdoor Furniture from the Most Simple to the Most Complex

Landscape Forms is a renowned innovator in outdoor furniture and design solutions. They wanted to create a more interactive and accessible way for their customers to explore and personalize their complex product offerings.

With an extensive range of customizable benches, tables and more, they needed a digital tool that could simplify the design process while preserving the uniqueness and flexibility of their products.

We helped Landscape Forms develop a 3D configurator that allows their users to easily visualize, customize, and design their outdoor furniture configurators online, making it simpler than ever to create tailored solutions for both public and private spaces.

Unlocking Design Possibilities with Advanced 3D Customization

The challenge was to deliver a digital experience that catered to both simple products and highly complex configurations across multiple product series. From creating straightforward seating options to configuring intricate public installations, the tool needed to handle millions of unique combinations while remaining intuitive and engaging for the users. We built the configurator using Click to Place technology, enabling users to drag, drop and modify furniture components directly in real time. The result is a highly flexible tool that adjusts dynamically, giving immediate visual feedback for each customization. Whether it is modifying dimensions, materials, or finishes, users can create personalized configurations with ease. To achieve this level of flexibility and engagement, we integrated several key features that ensure a smooth and intuitive design process. Below are some of the key features that form the core of the 3D configurator.

Dynamic Real-Time Customization

This feature allows users to see instant updates as they make changes, providing immediate visual feedback that makes the process more engaging and intuitive, especially for complex configurations. It allows users to easily visualize their choices and make adjustments in real time, bringing their designs to life without delays.

Click-to-Place Interaction

With the Click-to-Place, users can drag and drop individual components directly into their design space. This simplifies the customization process for both simple and complex products, enabling users to easily assemble their configurations without needing advanced technical skills.

Layout Starters for Quick Inspiration

To help users get started with more complex product families, the 3D configurator includes Layout Starters, a pre-configured design that acts as inspiration. For product series like Backdrop, these templates allow users to begin with a base layout and then customize it to their specific needs. This feature speeds up the design process, making it easier for both novice and experienced users to create their ideal configurations.

Exploring the Product series

With 8 live product series and more on the way, Landscape Forms offers millions of unique configurations. Each product series has its own distinct features, from simple, modular designs to highly complex systems that can be tailored for public or private spaces.
