We had the pleasure of collaborating with Leon Spikker to develop an easy-to-use modular housing configurator for our valued Dutch client, 'In The Middle Of Our Street' BV (MOOS). This new innovative tool simplifies the exploration of countless configuration options provided by MOOS housing modules. Our team programmed a user-friendly web application that enables users to effortlessly select different parameters and view real-time 3D model and data changes. We're thrilled to have played a part in bringing this project to life!
