Formr, it’s not your father’s form builder.

My New Project: Formr

Build a form in < 10 lines of code, with server-side validation and full Bootstrap implementation - right out of the box.

I'd like an app to define and visualize t-zones like this please. Here's my demo so far: please download and finish it, oh time-rich reader!

Having defined your regulating plan in Lilac, you could then apply these building form standards (and your public space standards, defined in Streetmix3D) to view your neighborhood plan in 3D (indicated with Vizicities' logo here).

This is a design/drawing methodology that follows the legislative structure of Form Based Codes (unlike artistic or engineering apps like CityEngine and Sketchup) and therefore nudges better outcomes. The least effort outcome is passable urbanism. It takes intentional effort to create the contemporary garbage of cul-de-sacs and parking lots and buildings that ignore eachother.

By sharing around Stoop form definitions, local and/or climate-appropriate building traditions can be applied to each new neighborhood development.
