{"slug": "cartesian-ai-3d-modeling-for-design", "title": "Cartesian – AI 3D Modeling for Design", "summary": "Formas launched Cartesian, an AI 3D modeling tool for architecture and product design that generates editable solids and NURBS geometry from photographs, plans, sketches, scans or existing models. Cartesian preserves user-specified elements exactly, such as keeping restaurant booths along a wall, and exports to SketchUp, Rhino, BIM and AutoCAD workflows without requiring a separate desktop CAD licence. The tool builds named elements and explicit relationships intended to feed structured models into BIM workflows.", "body_md": "## Every part.\n\nYours to **edit.**\n\nChange a chair. Keep the room.
