What is a curtain effect and why is it useful?

A curtain effect is an interactive way to showcase before and after images of virtual home staging. It allows viewers to slide between the original and staged versions of a space, making it easy to appreciate the transformation.

This effect is particularly valuable for real estate professionals because it:

  • Demonstrates the impact of virtual staging in a compelling way
  • Helps clients understand the potential of empty spaces
  • Creates engaging content for marketing materials
  • Builds trust by showing the original space alongside improvements

How to create a curtain effect with Pedra

Traditionally, creating a curtain effect required technical knowledge and programming skills. However, with Pedra, you can create one in just a click.

Once you have created your virtual staging image, simply:

  1. Click on your virtually staged image
  2. Click on "Curtain effect" - this will automatically generate a shareable link showing your before/after comparison with an interactive slider
