AR: The easy way to finding the perfect faucet for your bathroom

Which faucet works best in your bathroom? Does a matt-back faucet really suit your bathroom colour scheme? What size of faucet fits your basin and does a round or cube-shaped shower head work better in your current setup?

Find out how to use the latest AR technology to help you get a better look and feel and ultimately find the perfect faucet for your bathroom.

Using the interactive 3D platform, you can enter a virtual product world to find the perfect match for your individual bathroom and kitchen dimensions.

It’s often hard to judge from pictures whether and how our fittings eventually blend with the overall set-up of our bathrooms. Matt black showers, for example, can bring a distinct look to our bathrooms, but might not be the best choice if surrounded by a lot of dark furniture and bathroom equipment. At the same time, you may have decided on the design of a faucet but are uncertain where to place it.

Here’s how the latest Augmented Reality (AR) technology can help you visualise a variety of options and find the perfect fit.

Why you should visualise your faucet choice

We typically choose our fittings based on pictures or models we have seen in showrooms.

However, installations can look different than on pictures or change in appearance once installed onsite “in real life”.

By browsing our large portfolio and previewing your desired faucet before purchasing it, you can prevent costly mistakes and wrong decisions already in your planning phase. It allows you to get a feel of how different products fit your intended installation area and make sure your faucet matches the overall environment of your bathroom in style and functionality.

Interactive 3D views to enable smarter bathroom planning

Using the interactive 3D platform, you can enter a virtual product world to find the perfect match for your individual bathroom and kitchen dimensions.

Here’s how it works in 4 simple steps:

1. Select a model on the product page and enter our interactive 3D product view.
2. Activate the AR function and scan the QR code with your mobile device.
3. Use the camera of your mobile device and point to an even surface until the product appears.
4. You can now view the selected model from different angles and distances by using your mobile device as if it were a magnifying glass. You can, for example, check if a selected model fits your bathroom or kitchen dimensions as each product is displayed on a real scale.

With the expansion of virtual showrooms and AR technology, we can expect more and more digital tools to help us make better decisions in the future. No matter whether you’re still uncertain about the size, shape or placement of the faucet, smart AR tools can help make sure you find the perfect fit.
