FIG. 03 — SPECIFICATIONS

Built for architectural measurement.

Architect Desktop puts common architectural calculation tasks directly inside 3ds Max, helping you extract useful project data without repeatedly measuring the model by hand.

Room Perimeter

Calculate the perimeter of rooms and spaces directly from your architectural geometry for faster finishing and quantity calculations.

Floor Area

Quickly calculate floor area from your model for room schedules, architectural documentation and project estimates.

Façade Area

Measure façade surfaces from the 3D model to simplify architectural quantity takeoffs and surface calculations.

Glazing Area

Calculate window and glazing areas from selected geometry for faster façade studies and architectural documentation.

Direct 3ds Max Workflow

No need to move measurements into a separate application. Architect Desktop works directly with the geometry already in your scene.

Made for Architects

A focused toolkit for architects, interior designers and 3D visualization artists who need practical measurements from their models.

FIG. 04 — TECHNICAL DATA

// ARCHITECTURAL TOOLKIT

Less measuring.
More designing.

Architectural models contain a large amount of useful information. Architect Desktop helps turn that geometry into practical measurements without breaking your workflow.
