How Simple Style Co Delivers Spatial Confidence to Australia's Home Décor Shoppers
One of Australia's most-visited home décor destinations deploys Imersian's rug visualiser, with shoppers spending over five minutes per session actively designing in their own rooms.
Simple Style Co is one of Australia's leading home décor destinations, offering a broad catalogue of rugs and homewares to a large and loyal domestic audience. After deploying Imersian's rug visualiser, shoppers began spending over five and a half minutes per session actively designing with products in their own rooms. Sessions are predominantly mobile, with 14 product interactions per visit — reflecting an engaged, decision-oriented audience that uses the visualiser to move from browsing to buying.
Key Takeaways
- Shoppers spend over 5.5 minutes per visualiser session — more than double the time typically spent on a static product detail page.
- 14 product interactions per session: shoppers rotate, resize, switch room contexts, and upload custom room photos on each visit.
- Three in four sessions happen on mobile — the visualiser delivers spatial confidence on the device the audience uses most.
- High engagement from a primarily Australian audience reflects a loyal domestic customer base returning to the visualiser to refine purchase decisions.
- The visualiser converts browsing intent into design intent — shoppers are actively choosing rather than passively scanning.
Simple Style Co x Imersian: Turning Rug Browsing into Confident Buying
Simple Style Co is one of Australia’s most-visited home décor destinations, with a wide-ranging catalogue of rugs, soft furnishings, and homewares. As a leading online destination for Australians decorating their homes, the brand needed a product page experience that matched the confidence of an in-store visit — helping shoppers commit to the right rug without second-guessing.

The Challenge: Scale Meets Spatial Uncertainty
With hundreds of rug styles, sizes, and colourways, the problem wasn’t getting shoppers to the product page — it was helping them decide. A shopper might love five different rugs and still walk away without buying because none of them gave her certainty that it would actually work in her living room.
Flat product photography can show what a rug looks like, but not how it behaves in a real space. It can’t answer questions like:
- Will a 2.4 × 3.3m rug anchor a sectional sofa or disappear under it?
- Does this pattern overwhelm a small room?
- Will these colours clash with my existing furniture and flooring?
For a retailer with a large and varied catalogue, this spatial uncertainty is a systemic conversion problem — it affects every product page, across every category.
