Higharc Studio

Supercharge your DRAFTING with AI-NATIVE GENERATIVE DESIGN

Build, manage and change homebuilding plans in a fraction of the time with Higharc Studio, the generative plan design capability within Higharc Enterprise. Use AI-native generative plan design to represent options, elevations and configurations in one live home model, so 2D plans, BIM models and downstream workflows update automatically in real time. That way, estimating, sales and construction documentation stay aligned as plans change.

Rules-based layout automation helps control every part of every home plan, including standards, materials, options and product selections.

10x faster than traditional CAD line drawing

Use the industry’s leading AI drafting and layout tools to model home plans 10x faster than manual line-by-line drafting.

Real-time 3D model

Higharc Studio includes a lightning-fast visualization engine so you can see plan changes in real time.

CUT DRAFTING CYCLES with ##SPATIAL AI##

Higharc Studio uses spatial AI for homebuilding to turn each building block into an intelligent element controlled by custom business rules. Apply standards for codes, materials, product selections and plan requirements while you design. As part of Higharc Enterprise, Studio helps large homebuilders model spaces up to 10x faster than traditional CAD line drawing.

Manage ##EVERY option## in one place

Represent intersecting options and adjacent conditions in a single plan and drawing set. Keep options, elevations and configurations connected to one live home model so that when a plan changes, related drawings and downstream workflows automatically update with it.

Adapt plans to new lots ##in minutes##

Change elevations and foundations, mirror home plans and adapt designs to new lots without rebuilding plan files from scratch. Faster plan changes reduce drafting cycle times and help you respond faster when lot, site or buyer requirements change.

The freedom to ##make rapid change##

De-spec plans to meet price constraints, respond to supply chain delays and reduce errors that can lead to warranty issues. Because plans, options and documentation stay connected, teams can make changes with more control across the design-to-construction workflow.
