Abstract
A determination can be made as to whether a user of an augmented reality device is within a threshold distance from a configurable physical apparatus including at least one display configured to emit light. Responsive to determining that the user is within the threshold distance from the configurable physical apparatus, a communication link can be established between the augmented reality device and a controller of the configurable physical apparatus. The controller can be initiated to change the configurable physical apparatus from a first configuration to a second configuration. In the first configuration the at least one display can visually depict textures causing the physical apparatus to look like a first type of ceiling or a first type of floor. In the second configuration the at least one display can visually depict textures causing the physical apparatus to look like a second type of ceiling or a second type of floor.
