We propose a client-server graphics design framework and have implemented a room design system using CORBA. We have integrated technologies used in distributed computation (Java and CORBA) and computer graphics (VRML). To support multiuser collaborative design, we propose a supplier-consumer communication approach and have implemented it using the event service in CORBA. Our system can be applied in Electronic Commerce to improve the existing systems by allowing customers to select furniture and to visualize the whole furnished room in 3D.
