Come in, dear, and let's talk about designing spaces people love. Architects and developers put enormous care into layouts, but it's hard to know in advance which spaces will be busy and which will sit empty. An unused room is money wasted; a crowded one is a daily frustration. SymNexusPredict helps predict how spaces will be used before construction begins.
It learns from existing buildings: their layouts, room types, sizes, locations within the building, amenities and the people who use them, alongside records of how much each space was actually used. For a proposed design, it estimates how heavily each space is likely to be used. It explains which features drive those estimates. Designers can adjust plans with evidence in hand.
Those explanations are wonderfully practical. Perhaps meeting rooms near the kitchen are always busy while those at the end of corridors sit empty. Perhaps small focus rooms are used far more than large ones. Insights like these shape better designs.
It works for offices, apartments, retail, hospitals and schools alike. Wherever usage data exists, the approach is the same. Learn from real use, apply it to new designs. It brings the lessons of existing buildings into new ones.
Getting started means sharing data from existing buildings: occupancy sensors, booking systems or surveys, along with layout details. We'll help organise it into one row per space. Even a handful of buildings can reveal useful patterns. We'll work with what you have.
We test estimates honestly on spaces it didn't learn from. You'll see how accurate they are for different space types. That helps designers know how much to rely on them. Evidence builds confidence.
Architects and clients remain in charge of design. SymNexusPredict offers evidence about likely use; people balance it with aesthetics, budget, regulations and vision. Great design is always a human craft. Data simply helps inform it.
Customers end up happier. Buildings designed around how people actually behave feel better to use. Tenants stay longer. Occupants appreciate spaces that fit their needs.
Ways of working and living change, as recent years have shown. SymNexusPredict monitors for changes in usage patterns and signals when its estimates should be refreshed. Designs stay grounded in current behaviour. That's especially valuable when habits shift.
Imagine opening a new building where the spaces are used just as intended, with fewer empty rooms and fewer crowded corridors. Imagine clients delighted with how their space works. That's the satisfaction evidence-informed design can bring. It's a lovely result.
Please visit the platform page to see how a record is assessed with its factors explained. Picture the same view for each space in your next design. When you're ready, we'll analyse your buildings' usage data together. I'd be delighted to help.
