Plancks Panel is a new design tool I am currently developing in CATIA for Columbia Building Intelligence Project.  Plancks Panel offers a simple and logical work-flow for users to freely sculpt a wide range of facades, stairs, and floor plates with automatic information outputs for material use and light. The interface makes it easy for architects to create organic forms while receiving instant technical information on the impact of their designs.  This image represents some of its capabilities.
