Further, supporting the effort to combat climate change, Spacemaker offers designers and developers the ability to consider sustainability options from the start. The acquisition of Spacemaker provides Autodesk with a powerful platform to drive modern, user-centric automation and accelerate outcome-based design capabilities for architects, and urban designers and planners. Customers of Spacemaker have seen remarkable results, decreasing project costs and increasing the value of their developments: "I am proud to officially welcome the Spacemaker team to the Autodesk family," said Andrew Anagnost, CEO of Autodesk. "Now we get to the important work of developing the integration roadmap between Spacemaker and our existing design portfolio and introducing the Spacemaker team to our architecture customers worldwide."
