Video Description

During concept design, defining spaces is just the start. Testing how they actually work is where design decisions take shape.

With Snaptrude, you can create space layouts that stay aligned with area targets in real time.

Here’s how:

✓ Place furniture to test spaces and program fit

✓ Edit room shapes while keeping areas locked

✓ Track live updates in the area dashboard

✓ Save layouts as views, add to presentation sheets, or export to Excel/PDF

Fast iterations. Clear communication. Always tied back to the program.

  • Place furniture and adjust room shapes while keeping area locked
  • Stretch walls without breaking the underlying program
  • Get live updates to area charts as you iterate on layouts
  • Export finished layouts as views, presentation sheets, Excel, or PDF

Transcript

Once my spaces are defined, I can test how they actually work. Snaprude lets me place furniture, adjust room shapes, and even stretch a classroom wall while keeping its area locked. This means I can iterate freely without breaking the program with live updates to the area charts. These layouts can be saved into views, added to presentation sheets, or exported as Excel and PDF, giving me multiple ways to communicate design intent. Try now at snapsh.com.
