Designing & Validating Enterprise Collaboration in VR
Using VR, our Design Services team modeled large, multi-use collaboration environments for a hydro utility and a financial institution supporting everything from small meetings to large board, training, and town-hall scenarios. This allowed stakeholders from IT, facilities, and business teams to validate layouts, technology placement, and real-world performance early - driving alignment across departments, accelerating approvals, and reducing design risk before construction began.

Using Virtual Reality to Experience How Spaces Perform
Flexible Gather Spaces
Designing collaboration areas that adapt between small meetings and larger group sessions without changing how the space is used.
Divisible Boardroom Layouts
Visualizing how boardrooms function when divided or combined, supporting different capacities and meeting formats.
Sightlines & Display Placement
Validating screen visibility and content viewing angles from every seat to support inclusive hybrid meetings.
Spatial Flow & Room Orientation
Assessing how people move through connected spaces and how room orientation impacts usability and technology placement.
In-Room Technology Experience
Reviewing control interfaces, microphone placement, and conferencing touchpoints to ensure intuitive, seamless use.
Real-World Use Scenarios
Demonstrating how collaboration spaces operate day to day, helping teams understand real-world performance early.
Our Design & Validation Approach
Defined Multi-Scenario Use Cases
We worked with each organization to define how their spaces needed to perform across a range of scenarios — from smaller meetings to board, training, and town-hall formats — including clear requirements for changing capacities and room configurations.
Evaluated Spatial & Architectural Constraints
We assessed room geometry, materials, and conditions that directly impacted performance, including full-height glass walls, fixed layouts, acoustic challenges, and spaces that required different orientations depending on configuration.
Visualized Room Configurations & Hybrid Performance in VR
We used detailed CAD, Revit, and VR models to simulate multiple room configurations—allowing stakeholders to see how capacity, sightlines, layouts, and user experience would change, while also validating display placement, camera coverage, and audio performance from every seat.
Aligned Design Decisions with Budget & Approvals
By visualizing design options early, teams were able to compare approaches, understand trade-offs, and align on solutions that met functional needs while staying within budget and project timelines — helping accelerate approvals and reduce rework.
Delivered Scalable, Repeatable Design Standards
We documented room standards and configuration logic that enable enterprise clients to apply proven design approaches across future spaces, supporting consistency and long-term flexibility.
