1. A computing platform, comprising:
at least one processor;
a communication interface; and
memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing platform to:
receive, via the communication interface, from a first user computing device, first space program data identifying one or more parameters of a first physical space;
load a first geometry model from a database storing one or more geometry models, wherein the first geometry model comprises information defining a first plurality of design rules;
generate a first plurality of space models for the first physical space based on the first space program data identifying the one or more parameters of the first physical space and the first geometry model;
score, based on the first geometry model, the first plurality of space models generated for the first physical space, wherein scoring the first plurality of space models generated for the first physical space produces a score for each space model of the first plurality of space models;
rank the first plurality of space models generated for the first physical space based on the score for each space model of the first plurality of space models, wherein ranking the first plurality of space models generated for the first physical space produces a ranked list of space models;
generate user interface data comprising the ranked list of space models; and
send, via the communication interface, to the first user computing device, a visual rendering of a first space model, selected from the ranked list of space models, wherein sending the visual rendering of the first space model to the first user computing device causes the first user computing device to display a user interface comprising at least a portion of the visual rendering of the first space model.
