HKS is an international design firm of more than 1400 architects, interior designers, urban designers, scientists, artists, anthropologists and more

SoFi Stadium is a state-of-the-art sports and entertainment destination in Inglewood, CA. It opened in September 2020 and is, with 3.1 million square feet, the largest and the first "indoor-outdoor" stadium in the NFL. It is also the home of the Los Angeles Chargers and the Los Angeles Rams who will host Super Bowl LVI against the Cincinnati Bengals on February 13, 2022.

Inspired by Los Angeles Rams Chairman E. Stanley Kroenke’s vision for an iconic piece of architecture and entertainment destination, the international architecture firm HKS designed the centerpiece of a 298-acre mixed-use development with retail, commercial office space, a hotel, residential units, and outdoor park spaces. The complex features a 70,000-seat stadium, a 2.5-acre plaza and a 6,000-seat performance venue situated together beneath a canopy of more than 3,000 translucent ETFE panels and 34,000+ perforated anodized aluminum panels. What’s remarkable is that each of these panels is unique, creating a pattern with curving geometry in a way that no two panels are the same.

Concert is built to support the digital integration of design and construction; we believe it is the future of building processes worldwide. But core to our platform is the understanding that intellectual property is valuable for its creators and creating permanent records of that work along with a record of how it is shared, what it is authorized to be used for, and who has the authority to use it are core to creating long-term value.



At SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA Concert technology was used to professionally certify and authenticate over 34,000 digital files used for fabricating the anodized aluminum panels for the roof canopy.

Digitally sign and stamp one or hundreds of data files with a few button clicks. Concert accommodates one or multiple signatories securely and permanently with simple tools to verify authenticity of the data anytime, anywhere.

CONCERTvdc

For this themed corporate conference room Concert played an instrumental role in authenticating and versioning the digital files exchanged between the architect and the metal framing fabricator.

Corral explores and furthers an American design ethos, designing products that blend beauty and utility to create purposeful everyday objects. Corral strives for an honest use of craft materials to make pieces built to last.

Corral

Corral Design - furniture design studio and manufacturer based in Oakland, CA - is taking wood reclaimed by Urban Machine's robot and turning it into various pieces of furniture. The wood is strong, dry, hard, and tightly grained. The result is beautiful furniture with a story--wood that's been given a second life.

Reclaimed Wood Furniture

We are on a mission to reclaim the millions of tons of wood waste from construction and demolition by reclaiming it into high volume, locally sourced, premium lumber products.

By using AI, The Machine removes staples and nails from reclaimed wood to turn it into premium lumber products. This lowers the carbon footprint and solves the problem of wood waste.

We reclaim & co-create locally sourced premium lumber products, creating a circular economy. In doing this, we preserve secular forests, reduce logistical costs, and allow for the health benefits of wood in our environments to be reaped.

Trammell Crow Company

Trammell Crow Company (TCC), founded in 1948, is a global commercial real estate developer having developed or acquired nearly 2,900 buildings valued at $75 billion and over 655 million square feet

Giraffe was rolled out to all of TCC’s offices in the U.S. Having Giraffe accessible to TCC’s development team will save weeks of work across hundreds of projects a year.

Trammell Crow Company (TCC), a global real estate developer, engaged Giraffe to save their development teams valuable time when assessing dozens of sites for potential development.
‍
“We were in need of a tool set that gave our team an edge when exploring new development opportunities, especially since we would often review dozens of sites at a time to find the best option. By implementing Giraffe, our team was able to move at a faster speed when analyzing opportunities – our ability to assess a site went from weeks to hours with virtually no consultant involvement. Having this time back is incredibly valuable to our team and our business.” – Andrew Wallace, Senior Development Manager, TCC

After a six-month pilot program, Giraffe was rolled out to all of TCC’s offices in the U.S. The system is used to save TCC’s team valuable time and as a powerful communication device, bringing visual clarity to the firm’s pursuit process and stopping ideas from getting lost in
translation.

While Giraffe has unlocked significant success at TCC, this could only have been made possible by TCC’s appetite for continuous innovation. Having Giraffe accessible to TCC’s development team will save weeks of work across hundreds of projects a year, which translates into several years worth of development time in a single year.

How Reconstruct Works
Reconstruct is the only solution that allows you to truly visualize your project by combining reality capture, design, and construction schedule. And best of all, virtually anyone on the job site can conduct reality capture using equipment as simple as a smartphone or 360 camera.

Reap the benefits of reality capture at any budget.
Only Reconstruct’s cutting-edge technology generates precise, measurable 2D floor plans and 3D models using site footage captured on virtually any device—including smartphones, 360 cameras, and drones. Virtually anyone on site can perform a reality capture walk.

Overlay design against reality.
Comparing plans to your job site side by side isn't enough. Reconstruct’s patented overlay technology gives you unmatched clarity into what’s been installed versus what was initially planned. Use your findings to course-correct mistakes before your project becomes delayed or derailed by costly rework.

Remotely measure and monitor every inch.
Only Reconstruct’s reality mapping engine combines all forms of photo and video and automatically positions that footage in space and over time. The end result? A frictionless, immersive digital twin of your job site as it stands today and as it appeared in the past.

Act on issues as soon as you spot them.
Immediately identify issues without traveling to the job site, then drop a pin directly where problems are visualized to jump-start resolution long before the costs and consequences of these little mistakes add up.

Bring your construction schedule to life.
Integrate your project timeline, then upload plans to unlock cutting-edge 4D BIM visualization that sequences your project's next steps for all teams to see. Improve coordination, enhance safety, and save time and money by getting even the most complex installations right the first time.

Rewind construction with the click of a button.
See through sealed walls by turning back the clock in the Visual Command Center. Whether preparing for renovations, answering tenant questions, or responding to liability claims, you'll know exactly how your project was built—no demolition required.

Mitigate risks with 4d schedule integration

Use any tool-from smartphone to 360 camera to laser scanner to drone-to capture footage of your jobsite

Create precise, mappable digital twins of your physical assets in 2D

Reconstruct automatically generates a 3d point cloud that helps ensure construction projects stay on track, meet quality standards, and minimize risks and errors

Transform 360-degree or standard photos and videos into interactive 3D point clouds, that's yours to measure, inspect, and explore

GBBN

GBBN are an architecture practice with offices in Beijing, Cincinnati, Louisville, Minneapolis & Pittsburgh

GBBN used AR to present the design of a Medical ICU fit-out on the 12th floor of UK HealthCare’s Chandler Hospital. This process significantly increased participant engagement as we stood within the shell of the space. A myriad of comments like, “oh… that’s what that would look like” or “that’s what the drawing meant…” made it clear that the end-users understood the design with more confidence. It’s one thing to know abstractly that patient rooms have windows of a given dimension that are located so far off the ground. It’s quite another experience to stand in the building core (where the central nursing station would be located) and look down the hall to see what kind of a view that provides.
