Why architects need this

| Problem | Solution | |---|---| | Clients want to "see something" before hiring | generate_3d_concept produces instant design direction | | Floor plan iterations take hours | create_floor_plan generates layouts with SVG and code compliance | | Material selection is scattered across catalogs | material_palette returns specification-grade options with pricing | | Lighting design requires specialist software | lighting_analysis calculates lux, fixtures, and daylighting | | Cost surprises kill projects | cost_estimate gives budgets before the first meeting | | Contractor handoff documents take days | export_specs generates the full spec document |
