Lee Hon Kit, executive director of Visual Media Works (VMW), which built the VR demo, told Mashablethe simpler 360 view of the room was chosen over a more complicated version, because it's more user friendly for the masses which haven't tried VR yet.

"There are fewer buttons to click on the Oculus Rift," he said.

Lee added that the Oculus Rift was chosen in part because of the "neater" set up in the physical space. Other VR headsets need multiple wires, while the Oculus Rift has sound, audio and movement going through one bundle to the PC, he said.

VMW has also included a soundtrack of actual recordings made in the property's district in Tiong Bahru, which is aimed at adding to the realism of being in the virtual apartment.
