Belwith Keeler Continues to Lead the Future of Design with Augmented Reality
The luxury hardware manufacturer will debut the program at KBIS 2022
Since 1893, Belwith-Keeler® and Hickory Hardware® are brands refined in elegance through trend-leading design, inspired by the latest fashion, and refined with expert fit and finish. Now customers can experience the same perfect fit at home, before you buy, through a new 3-D technology unveiled by parent company, Belwith Keeler Décor Solutions®. Belwith-Keeler Augmented Reality Technology or BK ARTTM, combining art and science into a cutting edge 3-D visualizer, will debut at the 2022 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS).
BK ART revolutionizes the hardware shopping experience: It takes the guesswork out by bringing realistic 3D, viewable, auto-scalable, product images to mobile devices and laptops.
“With BK ART designers and their clients can effortlessly select style and finish matches for their cabinets,” says Knikki Grantham, Director of Style / Ambassador of Brand and Outreach for Belwith Keeler Décor Solutions. “With a few clicks, anyone can place hardware products on cabinetry or furniture for a real-time view in their space.”
Found on both Belwith-Keeler.com and on HickoryHardware.com, users can upload, touch and drag hardware onto their furniture and cabinetry, right from the comfort of their home. BK ART is embedded in Belwith’s product links – no apps or gadgets required.
“Designers and homeowners can play and then purchase with confidence,” adds Grantham. “It’s fun to find cabinet hardware you like and get immediate validation that it looks good.”
The BK ART program has the ability to rotate product and furniture images 360 degrees, allowing users to check the profile of the hardware as well as design details and change out finishes easily.
KBIS attendees will be among the first to experience BK ART by stopping by the Belwith Keeler booth #W872 at KBIS 2022. For more information, please visit www.belwithkeeler.com.
