From iPhone Scan to Verified IKEA Build Plan

A 48″×44″ reach-in hall closet redesigned around an immovable A/C air handler — scanned with LiDAR, modeled and photoreal-rendered in Blender, clearance-audited to the half inch, and translated into an IKEA BOAXEL cart (anthracite frames, oak-effect shelves) with an AI-agent shopping prompt. First room of the Condo Reno project.

Scan & Layout

Phase 1

Room captured as a textured OBJ scan, aligned in Blender, and iterated through 8+ layout versions against three hard constraints: the A/C air handler's return-air path (louvered door), an accessible relay box, and a live outlet. Final zoning gives each wall one job — dailies at the door, maxed shelving facing you, mechanical wall untouched.

What Ships

→Scan-aligned Blender model of the real room (95″ ceiling, A/C protrusion mapped)

→Zoned layout: right wall = grab zone (slanted shoe shelves, rod @64″), back wall = shelf tower

→Store-reference cutsheets and elevation diagrams generated with PIL

→Keep-clear map: return airflow, relay access, outlet at 12½″

Impact

The design respects every mechanical constraint while converting ~5 linear feet of usable wall into ~24 sq ft of storage.
