Our client is a Swiss-based digital agency specializing in metaverse production.
As a metaverse solutions provider, they sought to expand their global reach by offering immersive virtual environments for advertising purposes.
Leveraging the capabilities of the Spatial platform, the Onix team needed to create diverse and engaging metaverse locations that meet the client's vision and objectives.
The Onix team needed to:
Collaborate closely with the client to understand their vision and objectives.
Conceptualize and design diverse metaverse environments that catered to the client's requirements.
Utilize the capabilities of the Spatial platform effectively to develop immersive virtual spaces.
Ensure adherence to Spatial platform constraints while optimizing data for performance and visual quality.
Metaverse Environments Built by Onix
The primary goal was to develop metaverse environments to provide compelling spaces for advertising and promotional activities. From meditation retreats to educational campuses, we carefully created each location to offer unique experiences and opportunities for engagement.
Marthaverse: Virtual Serenity and Relaxing Retreats
Marthaverse is an immersive environment that fosters meaningful connections and human experiences. It is a peaceful island retreat focused on meditation and relaxation. With a mindful approach to design, users are inspired by exploration, collaboration, and personal growth, facilitating a deep connection with one's inner self.
Metaverse Academy Campus
The Metaverse Academy Campus is a virtual learning environment from the Switzerland-based Metaverse Academy. It is an educational universe designed to introduce users to the metaverse concept and its significance. It features galleries, museums, and interactive spaces where users can learn about topics like NFT.
Equipped with an audience area, users can participate in online conferences where they listen to speakers, view presentations, and engage in chat and voice discussions.
NFT Art Gallery
A virtual gallery that showcases a collection of NFT artwork. Users can view paintings, read descriptions, and access additional resources like PDF documents and videos. The platform facilitates the purchase of NFTs directly through Spatial.
Virtual Office
This interactive space provides information about a company's services and allows users to engage with each other through chat and voice communication. It serves as a digital hub for networking and collaboration.
Christmas-themed Metaverse
A festive-themed environment designed to evoke the spirit of Christmas. Users can immerse themselves in a holiday atmosphere and enjoy interactive elements related to the festive season.
Paper Location
This is a virtual extension of the NFT Art Gallery – an immersive universe where users can explore halls filled with captivating artworks, each telling its unique story.
Additionally, visitors can relax at the cafe, watch videos, and communicate with art enthusiasts.

Our development approach
Applying a systematic "From General to Details" approach, we initially blocked out the environments with simple forms, iteratively adding necessary elements while ensuring spatial optimization and adherence to platform constraints.
This iterative process allowed us to refine the environments, test functionalities, and incorporate client feedback seamlessly.
At Onix, we build immersive metaverse levels using a structured and transparent development process:
Conceptualization
Define objectives, user personas, and narrative.
Deliverables: Detailed concept documentation and storyboards.
Art development
Create visual concepts and mood boards.
Deliverables: Refined art concepts and visual sketches.
3D modeling
Establish preliminary spatial layout.
Deliverables: Basic 3D model illustrating spatial arrangement.
Detailing
Add textures, objects, and interactive elements.
Deliverables: Detailed 3D model with textures and initial interactions.
Finalization
Test, iterate, and optimize for performance.
Deliverables: Fully polished and optimized metaverse level.
Polishing
Refine visuals, functionality, and user experience.
Deliverables: Flawlessly executed environment with high polish.
