“Clients in general respond extremely well and seem to grasp our ideas more quickly and on a more individual level. Besides the sensation of the new medium, we clearly see a better, persistent understanding of our propositions. It makes space much easier to understand for clients, which speeds up the decision-making process and helps us identify required design changes early in the design process.”
