Rayon’s mission

• Rayon is building the next generation of architectural design software. More collaborative, simpler, smarter and more beautiful. -
• The design of building and spaces has a huge impact on our lives.
• Climate change, affordable housing, sustainable urbanization, future of work : all of these challenges will require us to design a better and more efficient built environment.
• But, whereas architectural design is by essence a collaborative endeavor*, the tools currently used by architects and designers are not made for collaboration and sharing knowledge. They are complex, they are expensive and they are stuck in an era pre-internet with desktop computers as their paradigm. -
• We are building a browser based collaborative real time multiplayer editor in order to democratize architectural design and empower designers to create more efficient spaces and buildings**.
