Kip&Co is known for bold, playful prints, but customers often struggled to mix and match bedding confidently online. This uncertainty led to abandoned carts and product returns.

To solve this, we designed and developed a 3D Bed Builder: a mobile-first, interactive tool that empowers customers to become their own stylists. By blending creativity with functionality, we delivered a solution that elevates both the shopping experience and the brand’s unique identity.

Higher conversions

The 3D Bed Builder boosted customer confidence, resulting in fewer abandoned carts and improved conversion rates.

Increased basket size

Bundling and styling tools encouraged shoppers to purchase complete bedding sets rather than individual items.

Brand differentiation

The tool reinforced Kip&Co’s reputation as a destination for playful, design-led home styling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Shopify support 3D visualisation and product configuration?

Shopify Plus provides a strong foundation for 3D and AR experiences. We can integrate custom 3D engines or APIs to render visuals in real time without compromising performance.

In this instance, rather than rendering the 3D models, we work with a 3D artists to provide the correct outputs for the Kip & Co team to simply manage their own builder.

How are textures and fabrics represented online?

Capturing the feel of a Kip & Co bed was crucial to matching the eCommerce experience. The 3D artists worked with normal and texture mapping to reflect weave, shine, and fabric softness, so customers can almost “feel” the product visually.

How does the visualiser affect conversions and returns?

By giving customers visual confidence in their combinations, the Bed Builder increases conversions and reduces returns — customers know exactly what they’re buying.

Can this be extended beyond bedding?

Absolutely. The same 3D technology can be adapted for so many other examples. We've used similar approach for automotive, adventure & room styling projects.

How do brands manage such tools internally?

We design systems with modular data structures so brands can upload new products, fabrics, and collections without developer intervention.

Kip & Co have managed their bed bundle since launch with minimal support, uploading new products seasonally.

Kip&Co boosts conversions with a 3D Bed Builder that transforms online bedding shopping

Client Overview

Kip&Co is an Australian home and lifestyle brand known for its bold, colourful prints and mix-and-match aesthetic. With a loyal customer base and no physical stores, the brand wanted to reimagine how customers shop for bedding online — bringing the joy and creativity of styling a Kip&Co bedroom to life through digital innovation.

The Challenge

Kip&Co’s customers loved the brand’s vibrant prints but struggled to visualise how different colours and patterns would work together on their own beds.

This uncertainty led to:

  • Cart abandonment as customers hesitated to commit without seeing combinations.
  • Returns from mismatched styling expectations.
  • Missed upsell opportunities, as customers often bought individual items rather than full bedding sets.

Competitors like Bed Threads, Sheet Society, and I Love Linen had launched 3D visualisers, raising customer expectations. Kip&Co needed a best-in-class digital experience that felt as fun, expressive, and premium as their brand — and that would tangibly lift conversion and average order value.

The Solution

Prosper Digital developed a 3D Bed Builder — an interactive, mobile-first experience integrated seamlessly into Shopify Plus.

The Bed Builder allows customers to:

  • Mix and match prints and textures across quilts, sheets, and pillows in real time.
  • Experiment creatively with over 60 swatches per product and multiple fabric types including linen, silk, cotton, and velvet.
  • Visualise the complete look before adding products directly to their cart.
  • Build confidence through a realistic, dynamic 3D render that mirrors in-store styling.

Under the Hood

  • 3D Modelling & Environment Design: A custom-rendered bedroom scene inspired by Kip&Co’s brand photography, balancing realism with load performance.
  • Integrated Bundling Logic: The visualiser connects directly to the brand’s existing Bed Bundle tool, maintaining the same discount rules and checkout logic.
  • Texture Mapping & Fabric Rendering: Fabric simulations convey depth, softness, and weave differences to help customers appreciate product quality.
  • Internal Flexibility: The Kip&Co team can manage new seasonal collections and swatch updates independently, ensuring the tool stays relevant as the brand evolves.

The Impact

The results went beyond aesthetics — the 3D Bed Builder transformed customer confidence and buying behaviour:

  • Higher conversion rates as customers could see and trust their purchase combinations.
  • Increased average basket size through bundled and complementary item purchases.
  • Reduced returns, driven by accurate product visualisation and styling clarity.
  • Elevated brand perception, positioning Kip&Co as an industry leader in ecommerce innovation.

The tool became not just a shopping feature, but a digital extension of the Kip&Co brand — playful, tactile, and unapologetically creative.
