Not every floor plan starts in CAD. A lot of them start as a sketch on paper — a homeowner planning a renovation, a designer roughing out a layout, a builder scribbling on-site. You can turn that sketch into an editable 3D model without ever drawing it “properly.”

From a photo of a sketch to a 3D model

1

Photograph your sketch

Take a normal phone photo of the hand-drawn plan and upload it at app.struktai.work. It doesn't need to be neat, straight, or to scale.

2

AI cleans it up

Strukt straightens the wonky lines, detects rooms and wall thicknesses, and reconstructs an editable 3D model from the messy drawing.

3

Set the real scale

Calibrate the whole model from a single known measurement — one wall length — and every room snaps to correct real-world dimensions.

4

Edit, render, export

Adjust walls, doors, windows, ceiling height and materials; generate a photorealistic render or a first-person walkthrough; export to GLB, BLEND, DAE or IFC.

A rough sketch becomes a dimensionally-correct, editable 3D model — no CAD skills, no clean redraw, no download.

Great for quick, real-world plans

  • Homeowners visualizing a renovation before spending on an architect
  • Designers turning a napkin sketch into a shareable 3D concept
  • Builders capturing an as-built layout on-site from a quick drawing

Frequently asked questions

Can AI turn a hand-drawn floor plan into a 3D model?

Yes. Take a photo of your sketch and upload it to app.struktai.work. Strukt AI straightens the hand-drawn lines, detects rooms and wall thicknesses, and builds an editable 3D model — you don't need a clean or scaled drawing.

Does my sketch need to be to scale?

No. Upload the photo as-is, then calibrate the whole model from a single known measurement (say one wall length), and everything scales to correct real-world dimensions.

Can I edit the model and export it after?

Yes. The result is fully editable — adjust walls, doors, windows, ceiling height and materials — and you can render it, walk through it in first-person, or export to GLB, BLEND, DAE or IFC.

Is it free to turn a sketch into 3D?

Yes. There's a free tier, it runs in the browser, and there's nothing to install.
