How the 3D Sofa Configurator Works

The configurator guides shoppers through the product selection process in a single interactive experience. Instead of switching between product pages or static images, customers can compare available options and see every change applied to the same 3D model in real time.

STEP 01

Select a Sofa Model

Shoppers start by choosing a couch from your product catalog and selecting one of the available product variants.

STEP 02

Customize Upholstery & Options

Compare fabrics, leather collections, colors, finishes, and other available options, such as legs, armrests, or cushions, depending on the product.

STEP 03

Preview Every Change in Real Time

Every selection is applied instantly to the interactive 3D model, allowing shoppers to inspect every detail from any angle.

STEP 04

Add Configuration to Cart

When connected to your ecommerce platform, the configurator sends the exact configured SKU directly to the shopping cart, where customers can continue to checkout on your website.

Key Features

Preview Upholstery, Colors, and Sofa Details in Real Time

Choosing upholstered furniture online isn't easy. Static material swatches make it difficult to understand how different options will look on the actual sofa.

With Zolak, every change is applied instantly to the interactive 3D model, allowing shoppers to compare every option directly on the product before making a decision.

Depending on your product catalog, shoppers can customize:

Upholstery fabrics
Leather collections
Colors
Finishes and textures
Legs
Armrests
Cushions
Stitching and decorative details

3D view

Examine the Configured Sofa from Every Angle

Unlike traditional product galleries or 360° product photography, an interactive 3D model remains fully interactive as shoppers explore different materials and product options.

Customers can:

Rotate the sofa freely in 3D/360
Zoom in to inspect upholstery with up to 4K texture detail
Examine seams, stitching, and construction details
Compare available materials, colors, and product options from any angle

The same technology powers Zolak's broader 3D Furniture Configurator for dining furniture, beds, storage, office furniture, and other configurable product categories.
