Almost Heaven Heats Up Conversions with 3D Customizers

Almost Heaven, a leader in sauna and spa solutions, had 3D on their roadmap when their Director of Marketing was connected with the Epigraph team. Together they launched a fully interactive 3D Customizer that lets shoppers visualize and configure saunas in real time — choosing finishes, windows and door types, and even swap heater models.

Overview
Shopping experiences prioritizing ease of use.

Neighbor, a fast-growing DTC brand known for sustainable outdoor seating, wanted to make shopping for modular sectionals as intuitive as lounging on them.

To give customers the clarity they needed to buy with confidence, Neighbor partnered with Epigraph to create an immersive 3D Configurator that showcased every combination in photorealistic detail.

Challenge
Saunas are a big purchase that demand even bigger buyer confidence.

Saunas are a considered purchase, with high variability in customer preferences and environments. Almost Heaven's previous e-commerce limitations made it challenging for customers to confidently understand their options and envision the final product, often leading to drop-offs and long decision cycles. 

Solution
Real-time interactive visualization.

Epigraph built interactive 3D Customizers, powered through Shopify, for 14 of Almost Heaven's flagship outdoor saunas, enabling shoppers to:

  • Customize wood finishes, layouts, doors, and heaters
  • View saunas in interactive 3D; inside and out
  • Drop saunas into their own space with AR
  • Generate a quote on the spot
Results
The 3D didn’t just look good — it performed.

Neighbor found that with the added ability to fully customize, plus the quick-add pre-configured sectional options, that engagement was up, average order value was up, and shoppers were more confident in their purchases.

Conclusion
What the future holds.

Almost Heaven has been able to turn product complexity into a conversion asset and plans to expand coverage to their full catalog, launching some time in August. With the expansion adding even more 3D visual confidence, they can expect shortened decision cycles, lift in AOV, more engagement, more data, more revenue.
