TOUCH, LOOK, AND FEEL. That’s the essence of N/XT
Discover the future of real estate with N/XT. With its cutting-edge 3D technology, intuitive interface, and real-time data, N/XT offers an immersive experience unlike anything else on the market. Discover a comprehensive view of urban environments with N/XT - explore buildings, locations, and transportation with ease and in-depth detail.
Jordy Vos, and Dylan van Keulen, have a long history of collaboration at Parallel, an Amsterdam-based firm specializing in architectural visualizations, 3D animations, and interactive applications for built and unbuilt environments. N/XT, their latest endeavor, was created with the goal of providing a comprehensive and sophisticated solution for the real estate industry. “We wanted to develop an interactive tool that combines detailed information with great aesthetics, userfriendliness, and insightful perspectives on current and future developments, such as project phasing and nearby points of interest”, Jordy explains.
Urban scale
The tool is beneficial for architects, property developers, agents, and public authorities in planning and presentations, participation processes, rentals, and sales. “N/XT collects all relevant information in the context of the urban scale”, Dylan says. “The tool is fully interactive, allowing users to actively explore and discover their surroundings. Within a few clicks, users can access information about building design, distances to nearby train stations, airports, or surrounding cities, and view preset camera viewpoints. Unlike traditional prints or animations, N/XT provides a hands-on experience where the user can explore at their own pace.”
Plot and building scale
The tool offers users the ability to zoom in and ‘slice open’ individual buildings for a closer examination, such as checking out an apartment or office unit. Jordy: “The tool can be linked with CRM systems to provide real-time updates on unit availability for leasing or selling. The plot scale is perfect for detailed building information, including sustainability and real-time sun studies. Additionally, the tool features a drag-and-drop street view option, allowing users to virtually walk around and explore their desired location.”
Touchscreen
The tool by Parallel operates on a variety of platforms, including laptops and tablets. To enhance its versatility, Parallel has crafted a unique piece of furniture with a built-in touchscreen; perfect for presentations, sales events, and trade fairs. The unit and tool can be customized to match a buyer’s specific corporate or project identity.
Navigating the tool is effortless with its intuitive menu bar featuring simple icons.
“We believe that real estate companies can speed up their sales and leasing processes by implementing this tool”, Jordy sums up. “Public authorities can use it to provide the public with a comprehensive view of their plans for a specific area. The possibilities are endless, and Parallel is not limiting its reach to just the Netherlands; our next goal is to take it to customers globally.”
Founded in 2018, Parallel produces still images, 3D animations and interactive applications for the (un)built environment. 3D-tool N/XT is the next step in Parallel’s services.
