People with reduced mobility face physical barriers in their homes that affect their quality of life, and a personalized renovation helps address this. However, 2D floor plans are hard to interpret for non-experts, making it difficult to envision changes. Immersive technologies like Virtual Reality (VR) enable first-person exploration of architectural spaces, improving spatial understanding and decision-making. This work presents a VR tool that reconstructs and visualizes an apartment from CAD drawings, allowing users to move through the space, collide with different objects and obstacles, and switch between the current state and a proposed post-renovation layout.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Virtual realityAccessible housing designArchitectural visualizationCAD-based reconstructionImmersive environmentsImmersive Visualization of Home Renovations for Accessibility Using Virtual Realityconference outputopen access10.17979/spu.23.c61
