3D Virtual Walkthrough FAQ

Looking Glass builds trust during design reviews through visualization and interactive walkthroughs. How does this work? First, our AEC design software was specifically created for client/customer design communication. Second, it enables customer-driven virtual client interaction. Third, it provides easy-to-use communication tools. Finally, it keeps designs housed in one location.

In short, this is just the surface of the powerful features available in Looking Glass. LG was created to bring high-fidelity visualizations and a more detailed planning and immersive experience. See below for frequently asked questions.

Looking Glass Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common implementation and platform questions from AEC teams.

Do you integrate with 3D Models, Autodesk BIM 360, Autodesk Revit, SketchUp?

Yes! We can import your files into the Looking Glass to view these designs in “Another Reality.” Furthermore, LG allows for custom interactions for each project with photorealistic visuals.

AEC Project Management Software

What industries is the Looking Glass used in?

Many industries use LG! It is a device-agnostic, web-based AEC project management and design review software. For example, LG is used by architects, engineers, construction project managers, contractors, interior designers, design-build firms, general contractors, and more.

Can you use the Looking Glass in all design phases?

Looking Glass is one platform for all design phases. Therefore, you can utilize LG from preliminary design and surveying through schematic design and design development. You can use this software during construction documentation and construction administration. The punch list can even be viewed one-to-one using LG.

What platforms are supported by Looking Glass?

We support most web browsers on any device, including Windows, macOS, iOS, iPadOS, Android, and more. We also have companion VR and AR applications.

What is the ROI of Looking Glass?

Clients have seen an average reduction of 8%–10% in design costs through Looking Glass because there are fewer revisions and change orders. People who use LG build a stronger, more trusting relationship with their clients because of the frictionless process.

Platform Value

How is Looking Glass Unique?

Most AEC project management & design software companies stop at providing internal punch lists for clients. LG is different because that is where we begin! This is a unique software platform because your client will have your designer's mind's eye of the design. Secondly, your client will have control over viewing and interacting in the space. Therefore, you will reduce change orders and improve customer satisfaction.
