High-resolution digital windows like the ones sold by LiquidView give users the chance to wake up to virtually any view imaginable, even if they have no conventional windows.

Modern problems require modern solutions, and when it comes to the lack of windows or desirable views, American company LiquidViews has an intriguing proposition – a virtual window. Consisting primarily of a series of high-resolution digital panels and a kit to make them blend seamlessly into any space, like a normal window, the virtual window also offers users access to a subscription-based content library featuring beautiful locations all over the world. Accessible via a dedicated smartphone app, the library syncs with your local time to offer an immersive experience.

“Each View is photographed by National Geographic level cinematographers with feature film motion picture cameras, over a 24-hour period, recording an entire day in stunning 8K video,” the LiquidView website claims. “To add to the unpredictability of looking out a window, views are augmented with photo-realistic content that appears randomly throughout the day.”

Each smart window comes with a trim-ready installation kit, one or several high-quality 4K Sony commercial display (depending on the chosen model), and access to the company’s bespoke content library. In terms of pricing, it was announced that a single-panel Virtual Window costs $25,000, while the larger, three-panel option can be bought for $100,000.

“Like so many people, I have lived in homes and worked in offices with no views or terrible ones,” LiquidView CEO and filmmaker, Mitch Braff, said. “Improving people’s lives by giving anyone a beautiful view was the catalyst for starting LiquidView. Our windows literally transform rooms.”

Sadly, LiquidView Virtual Windows won’t be able to help with space ventilation, and they come with an added cost in electricity, but some people this could be a small price to pay for the chance to wake up to virtually any view imaginable.

 

“I believe with the Virtual Window, LiquidView offers a disruptive solution that can completely transform how you experience a space,” said Noah Kaplan, founder and president of Leon Speakers. “This product has the potential to solve some of the biggest challenges that architects and designers face. Imagine being able to provide a view to anywhere in the world, in any space. It’s mind-blowing really.”
