New technology allows you to virtually style your home

By Amy Collins-Walker •

FacebookPinEmailTweet

When it comes to interior design and styling decisions, many of us struggle to take the plunge simply because we can’t visualise how a space might look.

But all that is about to change with the launch of Cimagine, a new augmented reality platform that allows you to visualise new furniture and decor products in 3D in your very own home.

“We are excited to bring Cimagine to Australia as the product is a pioneer. Shoppers can see how a new piece of furniture will look around their house, saving them the heartache of buying the wrong size or colour,” says Nati Harpaz, Director of Octomedia, the brand’s Australian distribution company.

Used overseas by retailers such John Lewis, April & Oak is the first Australian brand to embrace the technology – they’ve started by implementing it on over 100 products in their latest catalogue. Using an iPhone, iPad or other mobile, users simply select the product they’re interested in online, scan their room at home and position it in there.

“The user can see the item in its intended surroundings thus making it much easier to buy online products that, in the past, customers felt they had to see in-store,” says Nati.

💦 Summer's here and if you don't already have a 💦 Summer's here and if you don't already have a pool, you might be wishing you did, or planning one for next year!

Funnily enough, I've never wanted a pool but that may be because I grew up in England!🤣

The votes are in for Australia's best pools and we have them all on the blog today. Via link in bio.

From tiny backyard plunge pools to big family pools with slides, acreage pools, Hamptons pools, shipping container pools, pools with views, spas and glass windows, pools on sloping blocks and everything you could think of in between!

Do you have a pool? Do you use it a lot? Do you wish you had one?

At the weekend, Seb asked if he could put a box of At the weekend, Seb asked if he could put a box of drawings out the front of the house to sell and raise money for the homeless at Christmas.

Of course I planned to sneak my own coins into the box when he wasn't looking, but then a lovely passer by left this note and $5 in an envelope "To the artist" and made his day 🥰

I want my kids to be kind and empathetic above all else ❤️ You bet I'm proud of him for coming up with this idea himself.

And as grownups, let's be the people who leave a note and encourage this sort of thing 🙏🏻

This divine coloured concrete Juno bath from @nood_co (available in 21 colours) or this fluted number (available in 1500 or 1700mm length) from @highgrovebathrooms?

Baths are no longer the basic that you choose all your statement tiles and tapware around. Now the tub can BE the statement!

Just two of the new products featured in this week's bathroom roundup, on the blog now via link in bio.
