On this floor, 28 meeting rooms cost 117 desks. That’s the tradeoff, and it’s hard for an architect and client to settle with only one test fit on the table. Here, Plamo laid out the same floor four ways: 𝗔. Open plan: all workstations. 286 desks, no meeting rooms. 𝗕. Perimeter offices: private offices along the glass. 169 desks, 28 meeting rooms. 𝗖. Core offices: private offices + enclosed rooms around the core. 157 desks, 17 meeting rooms. 𝗗. Hybrid: open desks and private rooms together. 202 desks, 19 meeting rooms. With the counts side by side, the conversation shifts to what the team is willing to trade. It's also a great way see the test fits before committing to a lease.

Five updates in Plamo, and one theme: less time translating your brief into a model. → Complex massing from more inputs: image references, drawings, and existing geometry → An effort setting, with the Agent’s thinking visible as it builds → Exports to Rhino, SketchUp, Grasshopper, GLB, DWG, DXF, STEP, and STL, with Revit up next

This month's Plamo Workflow Challenge closes Sunday, October 18th. Build a model in Plamo, make one meaningful change, and show us how it improved your workflow: 1.

Submit your post here: tally.so/r/pbQ59P We’re judging on practical value, clarity, originality, and presentation. Follower counts and likes don’t factor in. Prize pool: $2,000 cash + 17,500 Plamo credits.

Where does your model need to go after Plamo? We modeled a tennis clubhouse and performance center in Plamo, then exported three ways: into Rhino for design development, into Blender as a GLB, and into Bambu Studio as an STL, ready to slice for a 3D-printed study model. That’s 3 of the 9 export formats now available: Rhino, Grasshopper, IFC, SketchUp, GLB, STEP, STL, DXF, and DWG. IFC brings the model into BIM workflows today. Revit is next! .rvt export coming very soon. Agentic 3D modeling that fits the tools you already use: illoca.com.

From one exterior joint to a furnished interior, in one model. Plamo started at a single facade connection and kept building: frame, windows, shading, floors and stair, services, then the interior. The pantry and meeting space upstairs sit around the real columns, beams, and windows, because they’re all part of the same model. Interior layouts that start from the actual shell.

From one column junction to a furnished floor, all in one model. Plamo read two revised sheets for a vertical-fin facade and resolved the mullion, corner, and slab-edge connections. Then it kept building: frame, windows, shading fins, floors and stair, services, and finally a pantry and meeting space upstairs. Anything left as TBC stays marked for verification.

Designed with Plamo: a detailed 3D model of the Golden Gate Bridge, from a single image. 1. Upload an image — or ask Plamo to look up the bridge. 2. Plamo builds the 3D model, from the towers to the sweeping cables. 3. Shape it your way: adjust the parameters, add new elements, change the scale, etc. You design.
