About
About Kanna.
Kanna Spatial is a reality capture studio, founded on a simple observation: the people who scan buildings and the people who design them don't usually share a language. We do both. One team, one dataset, one coherent record of your building.
The Story
Why Kanna exists.
Kanna was started by a Chartered Architectural Technologist (MCIAT) to do one thing properly: capture existing buildings as accurate, usable data for the people designing and building on them. Not a traditional survey practice — a reality capture studio that speaks the design team's language, bringing scanning and building performance testing under one roof. One team, one dataset, one point of contact.
The name Kanna is Old Norse — to measure, to explore, to survey.

How We Work
Our values.
Accuracy
We measure twice. The data is only useful if it's right.
Clarity
No jargon for the sake of it. We explain what the data means, not just what it says.
Integration
Capture and performance together — because buildings don't exist in silos, and neither should their surveys.
AI & Automation
Tools we've built for the industry.
Alongside survey work, we build software for the people who use it: custom pyRevit tools and BIM automation that take the repetitive work out of Revit workflows, and AI-assisted tooling for building performance analysis. If your practice has a workflow that needs automating, ask us.
