We present an approach for enriching a Virtual Environment by augmenting it with the kind of naturalistic clutter often found in real-world scenes. Rather than manually specifying clutter distribution, our semi-automatic procedural approach seeks to add plausible clutter with minimal user-interaction, and few constraints on the format in which the Virtual Environment is specified. We suggest that the integration of suitable and plausible clutter to a Virtual Environment increases realism at low cost.
