The catalogue
that thinks in objects.

Collaborative work on a platform for product discovery, digital assets and 3D inspection. Every product in the catalogue can be opened, inspected and judged as geometry — from the shelf to the screw.

The 3D models travel. They can be pushed over web sockets to a running DCC — 3ds Max, Blender, Maya — on a colleague's machine, and load dynamically while the session is live. Assets are versioned from v1 to v2 and beyond, so a model can move through review, correction and approval without ever losing its history. And because every asset carries its data, reporting runs across the whole bank: QC on each model, per asset, at any stage.

The same asset can be re-rendered or repurposed anywhere — badges, books, packaging — without a new photoshoot.
