Ever wondered what happened to the Olympic Village?!

Here at 360imagery we were really excited to be approached by Triathlon Homes, a new client for us in 2013, to produce a number of our stunning 360 virtual tours for a recent project they were working on.

Triathlon Homes, a consortium of East Thames, Southern Housing Group and First Base, are converting 1,379 affordable homes in the Olympic Village development in Stratford, now known as East Village. The Former athletes accommodation is being converted into affordable rented, intermediate rented, part-buy, part-rent (shared ownership) and shared equity homes with a range of one to four bed homes to cater for individuals, couples and families.

360imagery visited East Village a number of times in 2013 to create virtual tours of these various apartments and town houses. Here are just a couple of our favourites - click on the images to view the tours......

As is standard with all our work at 360imagery, the tours for Triathlon Homes are bespoke designed and every element is undertaken in house. We have now completed a number of highly interactive tours for the East Village development - the 3 bed example (click here or on image above) is typical and incorporates 8 scenes with interactive floor plans with scene markers, navigation arrows in each scene to guide the viewer on a 'virtual walk' around the property, and also thumbnails. Everything is bespoke designed around the clients' logo and colour sway, meaning the end result blends seamlessly into their existing website.
 
We pride ourselves on the care and attention to detail we take with all our work to produce the very highest quality virtual tours available, using only the latest computer and camera hardware/equipment. You won't find any shadows or reflections in our images.
 
360imagery are one of the leading providers of 360 virtual tours in the UK.

Just check out our portfolio page to see the amount and variety of work we have undertaken - and also the repeat business (which obviously speaks for itself!). Visit us at www.360imagery.co.uk
 


A Very Busy Year Creating 360imagery Virtual Tours for Crest Nicholson!

360imagery Virtual Tour of 4 bed Town House at Shaftesbury Gate Development


360imagery were kept very busy in 2013 creating 360 virtual tours for Crest Nicholson, one of the largest house building companies in the UK. We have been their sole supplier of virtual tours for over 5 years and last year alone we completed over 20 tours for them.

On one occasion last year Crest had to resort to using a competitor - a show home had to be photographed on a specific date and unfortunately we were booked on another assignment. But no worries - they immediately came straight back to us and we have continued to create stunning 360imagery tours for them to the very high standards they have come to expect from us. With many new sites in the pipeline for 2014 we expect to be busy!

We recently completed another 2 tours for them at their Shaftesbury Gate development in London - a 4 bed, 3 storey town house and a 2 bed apartment. To view the Town House either click here or on the image above. This is an example of a huge, 13 scene tour throughout the 3 storey show home and includes a pop up CGI image of the frontage of the building. This particular tour is a new direction for Crest Nicholson - it now adopts arrows within the scenes enabling the viewer to take a 'virtual walk' through, as well as interactive floor plans with interactive scene markers. The majority of our existing residential clients already make use of this greater detail and interactivity in their tours, and find it really engages the viewer - we are one of the few companies that offer such bespoke work as standard.

The 2 bed apartment tour can be viewed by clicking here or on the image below:

As with all our work, we take that extra special care and detail removing all of our equipment and camera/photographer reflections from mirrors and glass whereas the majority of our competitors don't have the experience, skill or attention to detail to bother.
 
360imagery virtual tours are uploaded for the clients' perusal and 'sign off' within 3 working days from visiting/photographing the site. We have been known to turn work around within 24 hours, and at weekends, to meet tight deadlines and launch events.
 
Take a look at how our work blends seamlessly into the clients' existing website and to see our tour in action visit  http://www.crestnicholson.com/shaftesburygate/
 
Crest Nicholson come back to us time and time again, and we are proud that our repeat business with them speaks for itself. They love our work and here are a couple of their recent feedback comments....
 

       “We have been working with 360imagery for our virtual tours for some time now and would not look anywhere else. From clear transparent pricing of quotes, to a highly professional finished piece, Stuart turns around our work in a most professional, timely and efficient way. He goes the extra mile to ensure our clients have everything they need. Our clients are happy with a finished result that really works for them to showcase their homes. And for us, a happy client means we are happy too! I’d happily recommend Stuart to anyone looking for professional virtual tours.”
      
 
         “Stuart is extremely flexible, aims to please and always delivers more than asked. The quality of the tours and particularly the attention paid to retouching really sets him apart from his competitors, whilst also offering good value in the marketplace.”
