Context
Overview
Architects, interior designers, and homeowners often waste time moving between disconnected tools just to plan, visualize, and manage a single project. Nestify was built to bring everything together — from smart floor plans to realistic 3D previews — so teams can design, adjust, and share ideas seamlessly in one place.
The Goals
Nestify aims to:
Streamline the drafting process with an easy-to-use floor plan builder.
Help clients better visualize spaces through high-quality 3D renderings.
Reduce costly revisions by aligning design and material choices upfront.
Enable smooth collaboration with real-time sharing and version control.
Problem
The Challenge
Before Nestify, design teams and clients faced recurring pain points in planning and building workflows:
( 01 )
Drafting and visualizing layouts often required multiple separate tools, slowing down the process.
( 02 )
Clients struggled to fully grasp design ideas from static floor plans and moodboards.
( 03 )
Making layout or material updates involved repetitive manual edits, leading to version mismatches.
( 04 )
Collaboration between architects, contractors, and homeowners lacked a clear, real-time sharing system — causing delays and misunderstandings.
Output
The Solutions
To tackle these challenges, we focused on building a clear, intuitive, and collaborative design experience for both professionals and clients. Key solutions we delivered:
( 01 )
We designed a drag-and-drop layout tool with auto-dimensions, making it faster to draft and adjust room layouts.
( 02 )
We added instant 3D rendering and material previews so clients can see exactly how spaces and finishes will look before build.
( 03 )
We connected an up-to-date catalog of finishes, furniture, and cost tracking to help align designs with budget from day one.
( 04 )
We built in real-time sharing, comment threads, and version history so architects, clients, and contractors stay aligned during revisions.
Outcome
The Result
The new Nestify platform improved the design-to-build process for both professionals and clients:
( 01 )
Faster planning cycles
Teams reduced drafting and revision time by working in a single, connected tool.
( 02 )
Clearer client communication
3D visuals and live updates helped clients better understand layouts and materials — cutting back-and-forth approvals.
( 03 )
More accurate budgeting
The integrated material library and cost estimator reduced unexpected budget changes during construction.
( 04 )
Future-ready system
The final design laid a strong foundation for advanced features like AR room previews and direct contractor integration.
