Transform your workflow

Express your ideas in real-time, at any scale, from concept sketches through to detailed 3D models. Create using a wide variety of digital tools in Virtual Reality and supporting tablet applications. View and manage your designs on your desktop using the LandingPad cloud platform, and integrate Gravity Sketch within your end-to-end workflow.

• Easy to use

  Design toolset built from the ground up with gestural interaction as the primary input method, providing an intuitive experience.

• Quickly ideate at scale

  Rapidly explore and communicate ideas in 3D early in the design process to speed up development. Solve spatial and ergonomic challenges in real-time.

• Collaborate in real-time

  Create and review together with colleagues from around the world, all in the same digital space.

• Communicate your ideas

  Share your ideas and work in progress in 3D at each stage of the creative process to better communicate your design intent.

• Design across devices

  Access your work from any device, anywhere. Design using both our VR and iPad apps, using LandingPad to synchronise your files between the two.

• Import / export to other software

  Update your workflow with seamless data flow to your existing CAD and rendering software. Supports .obj, .iges, and .fbx, plus Rhino plugin.

• Manage your designs securely

  Our enterprise grade cloud solution and on prem server solution keeps your work securely accessible.

• Create mesh, NURBS, and Subdivision content

  What you see is what you get, each stroke is a piece of 3D geometry, no drop down menus or hot keys.

Workflows

Over the years we have identified a number of inspiring ways designers have been using Gravity Sketch and bringing the tool into their workflows.

• Free Form Sketch

  Translate and enhance unique hand drawn styles in 3D. Fluidly express and explore challenging ideas in an uninhibited way, allowing free-form sketching while creating CAD-ready data that persists through the design pipeline.

• Sketch Over Package

  Import engineering data as a reference for the hard points to collaboratively explore design ideas and challenges at the ideation phase.

• Trace Over 2D Sketch

  Import 2D sketches and inspirational images to trace over. Freely pull strokes in space to create a 3D wireframe for later use down the digital pipeline.

• Design Reviews

  As a team, annotate, iterate, and further develop your designs collaboratively in a virtual environment, including imported package data or designs developed in Alias, Rhino, and other tools.

•  "Gravity Sketch is easy to learn, but a very powerful tool that is able to deliver great outputs for subsequent stages of the design development process, such as Class-A modelling, VR-visualisation or CNC-milling in clay. It´s great to work in the real model proportions from the very early stages."

  

  Štěpán Král, Concept designer, Svott

•  "As a designer one of the biggest challenges is to translate our 2D ideas into a 3D product. I believe Gravity Sketch is an incredible tool and time saver to quickly visualise an idea from all angles as you would with a real life final product."

  

  Joey Khamis, Footwear designer, Reebok

•  "I've been using Gravity Sketch as a tool for fast paced iteration and spatial evaluation. The faster I can get concepts out the more time that I have to let my subconscious mind distil the ideas."

  

  Nicholas Baker, Designer, Nicholas Baker Studio

•  "I love that Gravity Sketch is extremely intuitive, easy to pick up, and has a great interface. To me sketching with controllers feels like doing live-drawing in 3D space."

  

  Min Guen, Concept Artist, Coalition Studio
