Definition of a 3D website
Web 3D is a place (web-based) where users can interact with a 3D world such as moving, sound, interactive mouse movement, etc. Users can even experience VR gear and add 3D models for more interactions.
Why do we need a 3D web
- It is interactive:
Nowadays, you can already make your 3D website very interactive. It is not about creating an entire city or climbing on buildings, it is more about making you explore an environment and interact with the objects in the scene.
Plus as we are not yet used to seeing 3D websites, you immediately create a wow effect. As users usually associate 3D with games, this kind of website will make the user want to play with it. And he is right! Thus the user enjoys the time he navigates on this kind of experience and he will talk about it.
2. It is creative
With 3D, a new dimension means a lot of new possibilities: detailed materials, light effects, models, animations and movements, particles. Everything you could need to create an entire world that will match the product or the idea anyone needs or wants to promote. 3D will make it so immersive compared with a classic 2D that users will surely remember it.
3. It improves user digital experience
3D is the perfect way to create a digital experience. No matter if this is to promote the last famous product, a portfolio, a new start-up technology, or even a yearly event, interaction is always more potential on a 3D design because it can go further.
Creating emotions and joy means creating Engagement and Empowerment. The more you make your visitor dream and fly, the more he will follow you.
