Addressing Steinway & Sons’ Challenges with Matterport
Steinway & Sons Munich faces unique challenges: limited physical access for global clients, the need to convey the tactile and auditory quality of pianos digitally, and standing out in a niche luxury market. Matterport technology is uniquely suited to address these challenges:
Global Accessibility: Many of Steinway’s clients, such as international musicians or institutions, cannot visit the Munich showroom in person. Matterport’s 3D Virtual Tours enable remote exploration with high-fidelity visuals, allowing clients to examine piano details, room acoustics, and showroom ambiance from anywhere.
Conveying Craftsmanship: Pianos are tactile and auditory experiences, difficult to capture in static images. Matterport’s interactive models, with features like dollhouse views and precise measurements, let users zoom in on intricate details like keyboard craftsmanship or wood finishes, bridging the sensory gap.
Competitive Differentiation: In a niche market, Steinway must differentiate itself from competitors. Our 3D Tours highlight unique services like restoration expertise, positioning the showroom as a cultural destination, enhancing its prestige and appeal.
Google Maps Integration: Boosting Local Visibility
A cornerstone of our strategy was integrating the 3D Virtual Tour and Matterport-powered 360-degree panorama imagery into Steinway & Sons Munich’s Google Maps profile, achieving over 100,000 views. This result surprised branch manager Joe Plakinger, underscoring Google Maps’ power for luxury cultural brands.
