Everything it does
One workspace, every part of it
AtelierLab is a client portal for architecture studios. Each client gets a private home for their drawings, their invoices and the conversation about both, and a set of drawings stays sealed until the fee against it clears. Below is every capability that makes that work, one page each.

Planning Tools
Total build cost, phase by phaseCost CalculatorAn indicative construction cost for any city, split across the build phases, with a rough material take-off beside it. Enough to have the budget conversation before a sheet is drawn.Plan home-loan repaymentsEMI CalculatorWork out the monthly EMI, the total interest, and a year-wise amortisation schedule for a construction or home loan, so the client's real constraint is in the room while the design is still moving.Tile count, boxes and costTile CalculatorThe exact tile count for any area with a 10% wastage buffer built in, rounded up to whole boxes, and costed as well if you have the prices.Materials for your build stageProduct PredictorAnswer where you are in the build and get the product categories and material quantities to line up next, from the PCC bed and the TMT at the footings to plaster, tiles and paint at handover.Design with φGolden Ratio CalculatorFind golden-ratio dimensions, check a proportion you already have, generate a golden scale, and overlay a Fibonacci spiral on any building photograph.
