DesignWorkshop is a three-dimensional modeling software for architectural design and related endeavors.

Its unique interface makes it more profoundly "Mac-like" than any prior modeling software. This interface allows it to support actual design in three dimensions, as opposed to just recording design ideas already worked out with other media.

The power and flexibility of DesignWorkshop are based on the direct manipulation of 3D objects in three-dimensional space. This is accomplished with a three-dimensional crosshair, controlled by the standard Macintosh mouse. Dragging the mouse around on the table top moves the crosshair around in a horizontal plane, and dragging the mouse with the Option key (the Alt key for Windows) held down (option-dragging) moves the crosshair vertically in the model space.

Models are built from solid objects such as blocks, which are drawn with the Block tool by dragging out a base rectangle, and then option-dragging up the height in continuation. Although a full range of views are available for editing, most work is accomplished in a realistic perspective or axonometric view.

DesignWorkshop(R) Lite is a fast, fun and creative tool for creating spatial models, images, and walkthroughs, from initial sketches to polished presentations.

With DesignWorkshop, 3D designers can quickly and easily sketch out spatial ideas in three dimensions, then develop them quickly and easily using flexible CAD-accurate editing, alignment, and snapping functions. Then automatic texture-mapping and real-time QuickDraw 3D rendering with lights and textures bring your design visions quickly to life. This process is so fast and easy, you really do have to see it to believe it.

The unique DesignWorkshop modeling environment is based on a live 3D crosshair, so you can model in real perspective space, using natural click-and-drag style editing to create, resize, and reshape walls, roofs, openings, etc.

MacWorld calls DesignWorkshop "an excellent, lower-priced alternative to high-end architectural design packages." MacWEEK calls it "the most direct 3D interface short of a dataglove". David Stovall, the Mac Graphics Forum Leader for America Online, says DesignWorkshop "is the closest thing to intuitive design out there."

The user-friendly immersion-3D solid modeling tools of DesignWorkshop are great for anyone who makes built-environment models, including architects, interior designers, landscape architects, builders, set and exhibit designers, and creators of virtual environments for the World-Wide Web, game design, marketing, and entertainment.

DesignWorkshop is the first real 3D design tool for creative spatial designers. Drafting software works in two dimensions, like pencil and paper, and most so-called "3D applications"
