Parade of Homes | Spring 2017

Seeing is Believing

KDR Homes — 101 Rose Lake Court

By Pat St. Germain

>> Virtual Reality (VR) is making its debut in the Spring Parade of Homes. KDR Homes president Diego Vassallo is inviting visitors to drop by the com­ pany’s show homes to get a 360° view of current and future designs. VR goggles provide a unique viewing experience. Look up to see the ceiling fixtures. Look down for a closer look at the flooring, or turn around to get a full-circle view of any room. Vassallo says the company has worked with 3D renderings of home designs for some time. VR adds an extra dimension, allowing home buyers to put themselves in the picture to see what their new custom-built home will look like when it’s completed. If they want to make alterations to a plan, it’s a snap to alter the virtual model. “I sat down with one of my designers and said, ‘This is what I want to do,’ and it works with apps,” he says. During the Parade, staff in show homes at 101 Rose Lake Court, 20 Cle­ arspring Rd. and 200 Bonaventure Drive East will help guests don goggles to see a virtual library of home models.
