Fourthedesign: 3D Interactive & Immersive Experiences in Greece
We build interactive 3D worlds people actually use—real-time VR/AR, immersive simulations, and live demos for training, culture, and industry.
Why Greece, Why Now?
Greece is more than landscapes and history. It’s also a fast-growing ecosystem of 3D interactive and immersive studios serving culture, industry, defense, real estate, and education. Museums need digital storytelling. Manufacturers need training and simulation. Tourism and real-estate seek interactive previews. Universities and EU projects want scalable learning tools. Real-time 3D fits all of that.
Who We Are
Fourthedesign started in 2003 and evolved from classic multimedia into real-time 3D using Unity and Unreal Engine. Today we specialize in:
- 3D Interactive Experiences (VR/AR/MR)
- Real-time Visualization for products, spaces, and systems
- Immersive Training Simulations for industry and defense
- Cultural Heritage Experiences and Museum Installations
- Medical animations
- High-end 3D Animation and motion design
- Touchscreen Installations and trade-show demos
What Makes Us Different
- Interactive first: We build real-time experiences with live control, user input, branching scenarios, and data-driven content.
- Performance matters: We optimize for Quest, Pico, PCVR, kiosks, and touchscreens so your demo is smooth when it counts.
- Proven across sectors: Cultural heritage, defense, industrial training, and real estate use our work to train, sell, and explain.
- EU project-ready: Trusted partner in EIT RawMaterials and Horizon Europe for scalable VR training and simulation modules.
Selected Work
Cultural Heritage: VR Benizelos & Beyond
Walk historic spaces in interactive VR: explore rooms, trigger stories, and view artifacts in context. It’s an explorable story, not a passive video.
Industrial & Smart Cities: Jubail Interactive
Large-scale touchscreen app for one of the world’s biggest civil engineering initiatives—fluid navigation, data views, and real-time exploration.
Defense & Simulations: AAMD Visualization
System-of-systems visuals and real-time demos for concept briefings—tracking, targeting, comms, and interoperability made clear.
Skills & Sustainability: EIT RawMaterials / MineTech
Modular VR training focused on circular economy and industry upskilling. Built for measurable learning and regional adaptation.
Services
- Real-time VR/AR/MR apps (Unity URP/HDRP or Unreal)
- Interactive museum & expo installations (touchscreens, kiosks, large displays)
- Training simulations (industry, mining, logistics, safety)
- Architectural & product visualization (walkthroughs, configurators)
- 3D animation & motion graphics (promo, explainer, technical)
- XR integration (SCORM-ready modules, LMS hooks, analytics)
- Optimization & porting (Quest/Pico performance, LODs, batching, shaders)
Why Real-Time Beats Traditional Rendering
- Change anything, fast: swap materials, layouts, or components on the spot.
- True interactivity: users explore; they don’t just watch.
- Scales across devices: headsets, touchscreens, desktops—one core build, many targets.
- Training value: track attempts, give feedback, adjust difficulty, log metrics.
- Better sales demos: show variants live; personalize the pitch.
Workflow
- Discovery & Scope: goals, users, hardware, success metrics.
- References & Look Dev: visual language, UI wireframes, interaction map.
- 3D Content & Tech Setup: modeling, texturing, ingest, scene setup.
- Prototype: core interactions running, early performance checks.
- Content & Systems: UI, scenarios, logic, audio, data feeds.
- Optimization: LODs, occlusion, GPU/CPU profiling, build size.
- Testing & Handover: QA on devices, packaging, docs, training.
- Support & Updates: post-launch tweaks, new modules, event help.
Technology Stack
Engines: Unity (URP/HDRP), Unreal Engine
3D Tools: 3ds Max, Blender, Rhino; V-Ray/Corona as needed
Pipelines: FBX/GLTF, PBR, LOD + lightmap + instancing
XR Hardware: Meta Quest 2/3, Pico 4, PCVR, touchscreens, kiosks
Data & LMS: SCORM-ready modules, basic analytics hooks
