As a homeowner when you are designing your own home, you often go through various magazines and websites. After scrolling down various websites, you share your ideas with your designer, which results in number of lengthy meetings. Though the designer tries to perfect what you want for your home, you are still left unsatisfied. Livspace, post acquisition of YoFloor, is set to leave homeowners satisfied, as its vision is to create WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) productivity tool that can empower designers to give the homeowner an immersive design experience in real time,eliminating the need for a lengthy exchange of design iterations and feedback.

Bengaluru-based start-up Livspace has announced the acquisition of YoFloor, a mobile platform that offers a virtual trial room for home design decisions. This acquisition by the venture helps round up the previous acquisitions of design community marketplaces DezignUp and Dwll.in. With YoFloor, Livspace can provide high quality productivity and 3D visualization tools to in-house designers and those that will come from the community.

It is will be the first platform in India which can be used by both homeowners and designers to facilitate the visualization of a look or home design in one's own home, before you make any purchase. The platform will allow designers to upload your home and layout to present looks that you've selected and personalise them to your taste right in front of you. Hence, deciding upon a final design or look for your home will take the least amount of your time, but with an augmented visualization, it will still remain a highly involved experience like it should.
