Company Description

Outer Labs builds software for professionals in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction field that have the potential to radically reshape how buildings are designed, constructed, and occupied.

How could software interpret an architect’s ideas and intentions through a simple drawing?  or How can we help a designer explore a thousand ideas in the time it currently takes to explore one?
