software expertise for architecture

Robitect was founded by Clive Hunt, an architectural technologist fascinated by the technologies that shape the way we design our buildings and driven by the potential they have, to change the way we build those buildings.

Clive's career has been defined by his knack of identifying and implementing nascent tools and technologies that have subsequently become mainstream. This ability to bet on the right horse and, consequently, be ahead of the curve, has helped deliver competitive advantage and step change to those organisations and individuals with whom he has worked.

We at Robitect believe that the coming years will see the emergence of the most disruptive, most consequential, most exciting generation of building design tools; tools that will give birth to an industry distinct from the one in which we now operate and herald a new era of building construction.

Robitect aspires to be at the heart of that future.

design software support

Our team has been working with architects, technologists and engineers since 1987, supporting them as they've made the journey from analogue to digital and from established technologies to emerging technologies.

We understand building designers because we are building designers. We know what they expect from their design tools and how they expect to use them.

We evaluate, integrate, educate and troubleshoot in the knowledge that those design tools are, first and foremost, a means to an end; that rather than obstruct, frustrate and complicate, they should enable, empower and simplify. They should add value. We'd argue they should even be enjoyable.

software evaluation

The construction technology market is crowded. It's not always easy to identify the perfect solution − the one that will add value to your design, your workflow, your business.

We provide an unbiased perspective. We will thoroughly evaluate the options against your requirements, and the options against each other before you invest.

research & development

There is a gulf between the way buildings are designed and built and the way they could be designed and built. This gulf is fertile ground for innovation, and we have always had a clear vision of how change can be delivered.

Our cross-sector experience allows us to draw inspiration and find solutions from industries beyond construction. We develop proofs of concept and have been prescient with many of the ideas we have explored. If you are looking to develop something that is game changing; if you want a fresh perspective; if you want to differentiate yourselves, then we are your ideal partner.

sector expertise

If you are investing in or developing construction technology solutions - especially applications aimed at building design professionals, we can provide valuable insight.

We understand your market; we can judge its mood and how receptive it will be towards your product. We understand the technologies you are using to develop that product - especially the web technologies and services that are core to most current innovations.

We are the unique interface between you and your end users.

If you would like to engage us as consultants or partner with us, we would be delighted to hear from you.
