ArchiTool Program Analysis
A data-driven tool that transforms architectural programs into visual analytics, metrics, and 3D massing for early design exploration.
ArchiTool Program Analysis is a web-based tool that converts architectural space programs into interactive visualizations, quantitative insights, and 3D massing outputs.
It bridges the gap between data and design, helping architects and students understand how programmatic decisions shape efficiency, composition, and spatial logic.
The tool reads CSV or Excel program sheets — including categories, space types, counts, and areas — and generates a live dashboard with totals, ratios, and visual summaries.
Users can explore hierarchical charts, space distributions, and proportional diagrams, while testing alternative stacking or layout strategies in real time.
Through horizontal and vertical reshuffle tools, spaces can be reorganized to simulate program relationships and structural logic, then exported as clean .3dm geometry with layers and metadata ready for Rhino or Grasshopper workflows.
Key capabilities include:
- Automatic validation and visualization of program data.
- Interactive charts: treemap, sunburst, and stacked bar breakdowns.
- Efficiency and circulation ratio metrics.
- Quick comparison between design scenarios.
- Exportable 3D program massing with layer-based organization.
