Modern building projects – whether residential, commercial, or mixed-use – require speed, precision, and seamless collaboration right from the early design stages. Architects, designers and developers are expected to produce technically sound solutions that fit both budget and space constraints. That’s where the new version of KONE Studio comes in.
KONE Studio is an intuitive, web-based planning tool that allows you to configure an elevator based on project-specific parameters – without needing to consult with a technician or wait for custom drawings. Its improved user interface guides you smoothly through the entire process: from basic specs and shaft dimensions to cabin design and technical outputs.
In just a few clicks, users can generate complete technical documentation, including PDF and DWG drawings as well as BIM models. These outputs can be directly integrated into architectural documentation or digital building models, making the coordination process faster and easier.
KONE Studio also supports highly compact shaft configurations. Most KONE elevators require no machine room at all – freeing up valuable space and simplifying building layouts. The system calculates all technical parameters, including shaft heights and load capacities, and offers options to adjust designs instantly.
For developers, this means faster tendering and planning cycles. For architects and engineers, it’s an easy way to test and compare elevator options, optimize the shaft design, and get all relevant technical materials within minutes. Combined with KONE's technical consulting and a wide range of available solutions for residential and commercial construction, this tool fits naturally into the modern planning process.
Whether it's a design for an elevator for affordable residential housing, an office building, or the modernization of an existing building, KONE Studio helps you quickly and easily create a design that meets technical requirements as well as aesthetic and economic criteria. It's a perfect example of how digitalization can simplify the complex world of elevator design.
