Virtual to Real: Remodeling Your New Kitchen Three-Dimensionally

Most homeowners have had little experience with the world of 3D visualization, scanning and micro-manufacturing. While most of them have probably seen 3D worlds in their video games and in high-budget feature films, the idea of using the same kind of technology movie studios use to design a kitchen is simply out of their experience.

What a certified kitchen designer is capable of, however, is nothing short of miraculous, especially if they are equipped with the right tools and the right vision for your remodeling job!

From Real to Virtual

The technology likeliest to delight and astonish ordinary homeowners is the 3D scanner. In a room with stationary furniture, a device that measures distance with light can be used to "map" every object in the room, complete with its volume, size and location. When applied to a kitchen, this kind of three-dimensional map can give a remodeler or a designer a millimeter-tolerance measurement of every single object, countertop, appliance and cabinet handle.

Even without a scanner, rendering in 3D is simply a matter of inputting measurements, and that’s something you can create with a basic tape measure at home!

From Virtual to Amazing

Once inside a 3D modeling program, a designer can go to work rearranging both the furniture and appliances to provide more room, install a larger appliance or produce the optimal placement of cabinets and drawers. Once the geometry is set, they can then apply dozens, hundreds or even millions of color combinations to the proposed model so the finished product can be seen before a single tool is picked up.

From Virtual to Reality

A new technology which is just now gaining widespread use is called micro-manufacturing. Practically any container, door, handle or countertop can be modeled in three dimensions and then "printed" through an additive process into a physical object. This is also known as 3D printing.

This makes it possible for a designer to literally build pieces of a kitchen right on their client's countertop. The objects can be unique, and the process of replacing or decorating them is as easy as it can be.
