In a world where personalization is king, automotive events and showrooms are turning to cutting-edge interactive solutions to offer deeper engagement. One such innovation transforming the automotive experience is Livery Studio — an immersive, real-time car customization platform designed by NXT Interactive.

Combining digital creativity, gamification, and interactive branding, Livery Studio puts design tools directly in the hands of users, enabling them to personalize vehicles with decals, textures, and their own names — all through a sleek touch-enabled interface. This innovative solution bridges the gap between automotive passion and digital expression, redefining how people interact with vehicles at events and exhibitions.

What is Livery Studio?

Livery Studio is a touchscreen-based digital customization experience that allows users to design and personalize a vehicle in real time. Think of it as a virtual paint shop meets gaming interface, tailored for automotive fans and event attendees.

Developed by NXT Interactive’s Saudi Arabia team, the solution transforms any event space, showroom, or fan engagement zone into a vibrant digital playground for car enthusiasts.

Whether it’s a luxury vehicle launch, motorsport event, or a brand activation in a mall, Livery Studio turns passive visitors into active creators.

How the Experience Works

The user journey within Livery Studio is intuitive, interactive, and fun — with real-time 3D feedback and multi-angle visualization. Here’s how it works:

1. Car Selection

Users start by choosing a car model from a range of high-fidelity 3D options displayed on a large 65” 4K touchscreen. These can be branded vehicles, popular sport models, or customized showcases.

2. Customization Interface

Once a car is selected, users dive into a drag-and-drop customization mode, where they can:

• Browse and apply pre-designed wraps or textured liveries

• Add decals like national flags, sponsor logos, flames, racing stripes, and more

• Type their name or initials using a virtual keyboard, select a font, adjust size, and position it on the vehicle

3. Live Preview

All changes reflect in real time on the 3D model, allowing users to rotate, zoom, and inspect their custom car from any angle.

4. Final Render

Upon completing the design, users can:

• Display their creation on a secondary screen as a "Showroom Highlight"

• Print a branded postcard of their car as a souvenir
