6. Signature Design Concept

Concept Name: "Interactive Room Makeover"

The homepage will feature an interactive 3D room transformation experience. Using @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei, users will see a virtual room that dynamically changes as they hover over or click on different wall sticker categories.

Details:

• Hero Section: A 3D-rendered room with furniture and walls. Hovering over categories (e.g., Bedroom, Office) will apply corresponding wall stickers to the room in real-time.
• Animations: Smooth transitions between room styles using gsap for scroll-triggered animations.
• Micro-Interactions: Stickers will "peel" onto the walls with spring physics using framer-motion.
• CTA: A glowing "Shop Now" button that pulses gently to draw attention.
• Before/After Section: A slider where users can drag to reveal room transformations.

This concept will make the website feel immersive and unforgettable, encouraging users to visualize the impact of the products in their own spaces.

7. Interaction Model & Motion Direction

Landing Page Interaction Model: Parallax
