Living digital twins for planning authorities, masterplanners, urban designers and development partners. GIS, BIM and live city feeds in one navigable model, from the first site study to the day the place opens.
Every twin we build stacks the same six layers on the same block. A site study might stop at three. A city twin runs all six, live. Hover a card to lift it.
Sixteen tools that ship inside the explorer, each recorded in our Stockport East twin. Hover a tile to play it. Every tool runs on the same georeferenced base, so a measurement, a shadow and a bus route all agree.
Parcels, blocks and public space generated straight onto the georeferenced site, with GFA, coverage, green ratio and unit mix recomputing as the parameters move. Capacity studies in an afternoon, not a fortnight.
Density, height, phasing, daylight, views and transit access tested option against option in the same model. Take the comparison, not the artwork, into the committee room.
Residents explore the proposal from their own street and pin comments to the place they mean. Officers get the record, the themes and the export. Once the place opens, the same twin becomes the dashboard that runs it.
Set the extent and the layers. You get a tier, an indicative timeline and the modules involved. No prices, because the price follows the scoping call.
Tiers: Site under 5 ha, District to 100 ha, City above. Timelines are bands for a first working twin, not a delivery programme.
The research behind the twins. Arki Engine is our Unreal Engine design platform: Grasshopper logic driving real-time geometry, so a pavilion, a tower or a whole district regenerates as the parameters move, with the schedule attached.
Every configurator here started as a Grasshopper definition. The same logic architects already trust runs the live model.

What it does. A working twin of the Stockport East regeneration area. GIS layers, key views, dynamic sun and weather, first-person and drone walkthroughs, measuring and section tools, solar and viewshed analysis, POI and transport data, all on one georeferenced base.
What it returns. A model that officers, designers and residents can move through and question. Every capability on this site was recorded inside it. Hover to play the flythrough.
What it does. Plot area, unit mix, green-space ratio and block typology on live sliders. The park and the blocks around it regenerate directly in the twin, on the real site.
What it returns. Residential units, commercial tenants and green-space ratio recomputed as you drag: 1,200 m² plot, 25 homes, 10 commercial tenants and 35% green space in the configuration shown.
Depth, width, FAR, floor height, parking, set-backs and green ratio drive a parcel layout generated onto the real site.
Floor height, radius, floor count, curvature and panel colour on live sliders, judged against the real Westminster skyline.
A shared model of the plan, the constraints and the live town, so policy, pre-app and committee all look at the same evidence.
Capacity, density and phasing tested on the real site in hours, with the numbers attached to every option you show.
A twin that carries a scheme from feasibility through consultation to consent, and stays current as the plan moves.
Corridors, stations, ports and terminals modelled with their networks and feeds, rehearsed years before opening.
Game-engine tools that teach a place: school programmes, exhibitions and training built on real city data.
Every twin, from a single site study to a city programme, runs through the same four moves.
We audit what exists, GIS, BIM, surveys, open data and live feeds, and agree what the twin has to answer and for whom.
Terrain, parcels, networks and constraints cleaned into one georeferenced base in a stated CRS. Every later layer sits on it.
Options generated on the base, feeds connected, engagement wired in. Reviewed with you at each milestone.
Web, media table or headset. We hand over the model and keep it synced to the plan and the feeds after launch.
A GeoJSON, a DXF or a red-line PDF is enough to start. We come back with a tier, a timeline and the layers your decision needs.
