  • generating, by a virtual venue application implemented on a server comprising a processor, a virtual venue that comprises a two- or three-dimensional spatial representation of one or more objects based on an object model, wherein the object model comprises one or more virtual exhibits, wherein each virtual exhibit comprises one or more virtual rooms, wherein each virtual room comprises one or more faces, wherein at least one face comprises one or more display containers, wherein the at least one face is of a face type that selects a container type from one or more container types and defines the selected container type for the one or more display containers, wherein the container type defines a virtual object that the one or more display containers are displayed as within the virtual venue, wherein each display container comprises zero or more object mounts, and wherein each object mount hosts a display object that is a two- or three-dimensional virtual representation of an object; and

    displaying, by the virtual venue application implemented on the server, at least one virtual room of the virtual venue within a graphical user interface, wherein the display of the at least one virtual room produces a two- or three-dimensional virtual environment, wherein each display object of each object mount of each display container is also displayed within the graphical user interface.
