ABSTRACT
The present study precisely conveys the methodology of developing a three-dimensional (3D) architectural model
of a villa with its walk-through and displaying the model in virtual reality, which as a result, be used by the clients
to spectate, customize and buy the real estate property. Additionally, the case study highlights the advancement in
architecture, as certain specifications of each element of a 3D model can be viewed in a virtual environment.
Virtual reality is a transpiring platform, and in addition to that, the real-estate sector shows its incorporation in
designing, marketing, and selling projects. The teaching and learning process can be eased out by intervening it
with technology that generates an enhanced visualization environment. These technologies, when used
constructively, save time and energy and also hoard economic standards ensuing lucrative benefits.
