How it works

From an idea to builder-ready plans in three steps

No CAD skills needed. Everything is drawn to real Australian metric dimensions and stays coordinated across the plan, elevations and 3D.

01

Design your home

Draw walls, add rooms, doors, windows and kitchen & bathroom fittings — with live dimensions and snapping.

02

Get your drawings

Generate a dimensioned drawing set — floor plan, elevations, sections, schedules — as a professional PDF pack.

03

Connect with a builder

Send your plans to a verified builder in your state, or email them to your own builder for a quote.

What you get

A coordinated set a builder can actually read

Dimensioned floor plan

Walls, rooms, openings and running dimensions in mm.

Four elevations

Front, rear and both sides, with heights and materials.

3D view

Walk around your home and check it before you build.

Materials & finishes

Brick, weatherboard, render, Colorbond and more.

Door & window schedules

Every opening tagged, sized and listed for pricing.

Compliance register

An honest list of what still needs professional sign-off.

More than a floor planner

Design it. See it. Price it. Approve it. Build it. Keep it.

Most design tools stop when the picture looks right. BrainO Design Studio is being built around the whole home journey — from the first wall you draw to the records you need after handover.

01

Design it

Real metric dimensions, rooms, openings, fittings and layouts.

02

See it

Move between plan, elevations and 3D so decisions are visible early.

03

Price it

Turn the design into clearer selections, schedules and builder quote requests.

04

Approve it

Keep track of what is ready and what still needs professional review or sign-off.

05

Build it

Keep plans, quotes, decisions, stages and builder communication together.

06

Keep it

Retain the final plans, selections, warranties and home records after handover.

See the whole-home idea

Design more than the floor plan

Walk through the furnished spaces BrainO is bringing together — interiors, outdoor areas, material choices, supplier comparison, solar and the build journey — with narration from our own studio stack.

Walk through the BrainO Design Studio

  1. See furnished interior and outdoor spaces together.
  2. Turn design choices into quantities and material lists.
  3. Compare suppliers and split or bundle supply packages.
  4. Add solar and keep selections tied to the project.
  5. Carry the same project through tender, build and handover.
  6. Share the project with a builder for quoting.

The BrainO +3 promise

When others give you one tool, we build the next jobs around it.

The goal is not more buttons. It is fewer hand-offs, fewer separate apps and a clearer path from an idea to a completed home.

Beyond 3D

See + share + review + remember

Visualise the design, share it with family or a builder, capture comments and keep versions instead of losing decisions in messages.

Beyond a floor plan

Draw + document + quote + track

The design becomes a drawing pack, quote-ready information and eventually the project record used through the build.

Beyond a PDF

Plans + selections + approvals + home vault

Keep the information needed around the plans — materials, professional sign-offs, warranties and the final home record.
