ABOUT DIRTT ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS
DIRTT, short for Doing It Right This Time, designs and manufactures prefabricated interior construction: walls, millwork, technology integration and finishes for commercial, healthcare, education and corporate spaces, built in a factory rather than framed on site. The pitch to a client is speed and certainty, an interior that is specified, priced and scheduled before a single wall goes up, with far less of the rework that comes from building interiors by hand.
That pitch only holds if the software behind it is trustworthy. DIRTT's ICE platform is the link between a designer's drawing and the factory floor: what gets drawn is what gets manufactured, with no translation step in between where errors can hide. The work below sits inside that platform, on the surfaces where a drawing decision becomes a manufacturing one.
DIRTT ICE, 2D to manufacturing
UX for ICE, the software that takes an engineering-accurate interior from 2D drafting through interactive 3D and VR to a manufacturing order.

DIRTT COM Hardware, specifying hardware and finishes
UX for specifying door hardware and custom finishes in ICE, where a lever, a hinge, and a powder coat each resolve to a real part on the factory floor.

DIRTT Blocking Brackets, anchoring what mounts to the wall
UX for specifying blocking in ICE, the internal anchorage that lets a DIRTT wall carry a television, a handrail, or a grab bar, placed and sized before the panel is manufactured.
