Formas

什麼是 Formas？

Formas is an AI design workspace for architecture and spatial design that brings concept exploration, architectural visualization, 3D creation, and video generation into one environment. It supports a workflow from early visual ideas to images and moving presentations.

Its main tools include Freeform Studio, a canvas for working with sketches and mixed visual inputs; 3D Model Studio, for turning simple models into contextual architectural visuals; and Instant Narratives, for presenting projects through motion. The workspace helps designers develop and communicate ideas using sketches, images, and geometry as starting points.

Formas 能做什麼？

Freeform design canvas

Sketch, collage, and combine images, cutouts, and basic shapes on a live canvas. Freeform Studio uses a model trained by Formas to interpret these inputs for design exploration.

Sketch to architectural render

Turn rough sketches into photorealistic architectural visualizations, with controls for style and materials to guide the result.

Image to 3D model

Convert a 2D image into a 3D model with geometry and textures. Formas describes the resulting models as ready for export.

Contextual 3D visualization

Place simple 3D models in realistic environments with lighting, shadows, and atmospheric effects to show a design in context.

Image to video

Instant Narratives turns static images into video sequences with camera movements and cinematic transitions for project storytelling.

使用情境

“Early architectural concept studies”

Explore alternative forms before developing a detailed design. Combine sketches, reference images, and basic shapes to test visual directions.

“Interior design presentations”

Develop visual concepts for interiors and explore material and style choices when preparing options for client discussions.

“Presenting a massing model in context”

Use a simple 3D model as the basis for an architectural visualization that communicates the proposal's setting, lighting, and atmosphere.

“Animated project storytelling”

Create moving sequences from presentation images to introduce a project or communicate its visual character through camera motion.

常見問題

What can I use as a starting point?

Formas supports several starting points: rough sketches, images, cutouts, basic shapes, and simple 3D models. The appropriate tool depends on whether you want to explore a concept, generate a visualization, or create a model.

Do I need a detailed 3D model to create architectural visuals?

3D Model Studio is described as working with simple 3D models. Freeform Studio also provides a sketch-based route to architectural visualization.

Can I export the generated 3D models?

Formas describes models produced by its image-to-3D feature as ready for export, including geometry and textures.
