Virtual furniture potential: interview with furniture magazine Möbelkultur
The Metaverse is on everyone's lips, and we at Danthree Studio are intensely engaged with the opportunities it offers for the furniture, home & living industry. Recently, we were interviewed on the topic by the renowned furniture magazine Möbelkultur.
Daniel Schuster, our founder, explained in an interview that the metaverse is currently still in its infancy, but has the potential to develop into a significant market.

The technical possibilities have improved enormously in recent years, making it possible to create realistic three-dimensional worlds of experience. In particular, the combination of powerful computers, artificial intelligence and virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) technologies opens up new potential for the metaverse.

Daniel Schuster pointed out that many brands and companies are already active in the metaverse and offer digital twins of their physical products. These are sold as NFTs (non-fungible tokens), a digital token that is secured via the blockchain. The fashion industry in particular has already done pioneering work in this area.
Schuster also sees potential in the metaverse for the furniture, home & living sector. On the one hand, customers could interact virtually with furniture and furnishings and thus get a better feel for the products. On the other hand, digital visualizations could help to promote the sale of physical products by presenting them in virtual spaces.

Despite the great potential, however, challenges remain, such as data protection concerns and consumer skepticism about the metaverse. Nevertheless, Schuster emphasized that digital progress is unstoppable and companies in the furniture industry should keep a watchful eye on developments.
