Many design disciplines have made use of Virtual Reality (VR) technology within the design process but is the technology appropriate for adoption into communication design? Using an interview study with professional communication design practitioners, this paper presents insights on the perceived relevance of VR technology to the profession. Findings indicate that while participants saw potential utility in VR as a tool for communication design practice, it was not perceived as immediately suitable for professional use due to various factors which are identified and discussed.
