Problem
The early stages of urban development planning involve complex, time-consuming tasks, including generating design options, managing data, and evaluating project feasibility, which can be overwhelming for architects and property developers. Cross-referencing all possible choices and outcomes quickly becomes overwhelming.
Solution
Hektar is a generative design platform that streamlines early-stage urban development by automating complex tasks and providing clear visualizations of project feasibility and key metrics. Using powerful generative algorithms, Hektar enables users to create, manage, evaluate, and share early-stage designs for urban development on a single platform. The platform simplifies the design process by handling complexity and automating monotonous, time-consuming tasks, allowing users to explore a wider range of possibilities and make data-driven decisions early in the planning phase. Hektar accesses an extensive dataset of urban typologies to generate feasible design proposals based on real-world data.
Target Audience
Hektar is designed for architecture firms, property developers, and municipalities involved in early-stage urban planning and development.
