The R&D engine behind the platform.

Atelier Labs is our R&D and investment engine, learning from every live Atelier project — aimed at making bespoke work as fast, precise, and repeatable as mass production. The Atelier Estimator is what ships today; the rest are frontiers we explore and invest in.

§02 · The mandate

Custom shouldn't cost what custom costs. Bespoke work is expensive because every piece is a first attempt — Labs exists to delete that penalty.

The estimate moved into the model.

The Atelier Estimator is a SketchUp extension that connects the moment of design to the economics of making it. Browse Atelier's live material library, let the plugin take off areas and components straight from your geometry, and watch a machine-time-based estimate assemble itself while you draw. When the numbers work, request a formal quote — without ever leaving the model.

/01

Live material library

Curated woods, stones, metals, and finishes with real unit economics — the same library Atelier's production floors build from.

/02

Automatic takeoffs

The plugin reads components, faces, and areas directly from your model. No re-measuring, no spreadsheet.

/03

Machine-time pricing

Estimates computed from machine time, material, and finishing passes — a number a factory can hold.

Quotes in one click

Send the takeoff and spec to Atelier from inside the panel. A formal engineered quote comes back the same way.

What ships is the Estimator. What's next stays on the floor until it's proven.

F.01

Computational fabrication

Drawings become machine instructions without human translation — parametric detail libraries, automatic toolpathing, and nesting engines that quote straight from geometry.

F.02

Materials R&D

Engineered substrates, low-carbon composites, and finish systems tested to hospitality-grade wear standards before they ever reach a project.

F.03

Autonomous metrology

Structured-light scanning integrated into the production line itself — every surface verified in-process, not just at the gate.

Today

Labs research ships quietly into every Atelier project.
