LotFabric SketchBeta
The first sketch of your site, before anyone drafts a concept.
Early insights and pattern recognition to guide the design.
How to use it
- Enter the width and depth that best match your site.
- Mark your pond, site entrance and any shared exits. The entrance and exits set the collector spine.
- Choose your products and target mix.
- Check the ROW widths and the pond and park sizes.
- Run and compare the three options. Move the pond or the entrance and exits, then run again for more.
1. Block boundary
Marking a site entrance and exit(s) creates a collector spine and entrance condition, which gives better sketch results.
2. Products and target mix
| In mix | Product | Width m | End unit extra m | Depth m | Type | Mix % of units |
|---|
3. Streets
Works with tighter condo ROWs too.
4. Pond and park
Other blocks
| Block | Area ha | With park |
|---|

LotFabric Sketch v1.0 (beta)
This tool produces sketch estimates on a simplified site shape using the inputs you enter. Results are approximate and for early discussion only. They are not a plan, a survey, an engineered design or professional advice, and they do not reflect your actual site boundary, grading, servicing, zoning or approvals. Do not rely on them for purchase, financing, valuation or design decisions. Have any site reviewed by qualified professionals before acting. LotFabric and Mueller Development Group accept no liability for decisions made using this tool.
