A platform for mastering various building typologies, supporting diverse urban and rural planning projects.
Overview
Hektar is designed to decode the complexities of urban planning by mastering different building typologies. It is tailored to support a wide range of planning projects, whether they involve dense urban master plans or single-family housing in rural areas. This flexibility ensures that Hektar can accommodate various project requirements effectively.
The platform is built on universal principles derived from extensive architectural experience, focusing on creating pleasant and livable cities. It incorporates a degree of randomization to achieve the necessary variation and character in urban environments. Hektar is developed to assist with practical planning needs, ensuring feasibility from the outset while maintaining artistic integrity.
Multi-Family Housing
For multi-family housing projects, Hektar utilizes an orthogonal grid system, filling parcels with open or closed blocks, lamellas, or point houses based on user specifications. It leverages a vast dataset of real-world projects to identify suitable apartment units, combining them into definitive volumes for each building. This inside-out approach guarantees architectural quality and feasibility across all scales, from individual units to the broader urban fabric.
Single-Family Housing
In single-family housing developments, Hektar focuses on optimizing land use with various configurations of free-standing houses, pair houses, or row houses. It helps designers find the best balance and scale for common areas, street networks, houses, and gardens, fostering livable neighborhoods. The platform enables the generation of numerous scenarios to explore and compare architectural parameters, providing a powerful tool for brainstorming and design refinement.
Hektar serves as a valuable planning colleague, simplifying the design process for over 6000 users. It offers a free sign-up to get started, making it accessible for professionals seeking to enhance their planning capabilities.
