Hypar is an open-source generative design platform targeting technically sophisticated architects and computational designers. Unlike the other tools in this category, Hypar is developer-extensible: you can write custom generative functions in C# or use existing community functions from the function library. Pre-built functions cover parking garage layout optimization, structural grid generation, floor plate stacking, and MEP duct routing. The platform runs in the cloud, so complex generation tasks don't tie up local hardware. For firms with a computational designer or BIM manager, Hypar enables automation of repetitive design tasks that would otherwise consume weeks of manual modeling time.
Generate hundreds of floor plan options from a site boundary
Input your site constraints, program requirements, and building type — Maket generates dozens of floor plan options in seconds. Used in early-stage design to dramatically expand the possibility space.
AI-driven space optimization for efficient building layouts
Analyzes your floor plate and suggests optimized configurations that maximize net leasable area, natural light, and circulation efficiency. Works as a Revit plugin and standalone tool.
Instant feasibility studies and site planning for multifamily projects
Real estate developers and architects use TestFit to run hundreds of building configurations on a site instantly. Checks zoning, FAR, unit count, and parking compliance automatically.
