Specializes in augmented drafting tools for city planning, automating complex tasks and aiding decision-making with comprehensive data analysis.
Overview
Parametric offers advanced tools designed to enhance the city planning process. Their flagship product, Hektar, is an augmented drafting tool that simplifies early-stage planning by automating complex and repetitive tasks, allowing architects to focus more on design.
City planning involves managing multiple scales and choices, which can be overwhelming. Hektar provides a comprehensive overview of alternatives, helping planners navigate through various options to find the best path forward.
Effective risk assessment in planning requires timely and relevant data. Hektar is designed to be a transparent and comprehensive decision-making tool, delivering critical information as early as possible in the planning process.
Hektar incorporates the distinct rulesets of various building typologies, such as lamellas, row houses, quarters, and villas. These rulesets are interdependent with other urban elements like street networks, and Hektar decodes and integrates them to support the design process.
