Cartesian by Formas is presented as an artificial intelligence driven three-dimensional modeling tool designed for architecture and product design, emphasizing a precise, intuitive workflow where users can instruct the software by verbal commands, sketches, or imported data to generate detailed models with maximum accuracy. The foundational principles of the system revolve around editability, geometric precision, topological integrity, and integration with Building Information Modeling workflows. Users are empowered to manipulate individual components within the model, ensuring that every object retains its discrete spatial relationship, allowing for precise alterations to specific elements while maintaining the integrity of the overall structure. The tool emphasizes geometric rigor through the concept of definition, allowing for the inspection, measurement, and modification of faces, edges, and solids. This approach mandates exact solids and clean topology, actively avoiding polygon-mesh approximations in favor of native surfaces and precise edges, which is critical for complex structural representation. Furthermore, the system supports a path toward Building Information Modeling by allowing named elements and explicit relational data within the model, thereby structuring the geometry into a pathway compatible with BIM workflows. The capability of Cartesian by Formas extends across a vast spectrum of design domains, enabling the creation of highly specific models for various applications. This includes detailed architectural elements such as walls, floors, openings, and structural components, as well as complex spatial designs like residential homes or urban infrastructure, which can be managed as interconnected, editable models. For product design, the system facilitates the precise shaping of components, connections, and materials for items like furniture, including chairs and tables. It also supports specialized modeling for complex structures, offering tools for NURBS solids and mesh parts, and large-scale coordinate for coordinating large assemblies like stadiums. Specialized capabilities are also offered for manufacturing processes, such as generating panel joints, toolpaths, and tolerances necessary for CNC fabrication, and supporting 3D printing requirements. The input process is flexible, allowing users to incorporate existing data such as photographs, rough plans, sketches, scans, or existing models. This process allows users to define which elements must be preserved exactly while granting freedom to modify the remaining components. This capability supports complex creative scenarios, such as defining the exact placement of architectural elements like restaurant booths based on verbal instructions, ensuring that the resulting model is an exact representation that can be exported to industry-standard formats. In terms of interoperability, the system is designed to operate across multiple platforms and file formats. It supports native export capabilities for formats such as AutoCAD’s DWG, Rhino’s 3DM, SketchUp’s SKP, and BIM’s IFC, facilitating seamless integration into existing professional design ecosystems. The core philosophy behind the tool is to produce real solids rather than mere representations, ensuring that the geometry generated is suitable for physical manipulation in processes like measurement, cutting, printing, and machining. This commitment guarantees that spatial relationships are maintained, and any geometric conflicts are explicitly communicated, ensuring that what is specified is what is realized in the final product. |
