Arka for Blender

Draw walls in Blender, and Arka furnishes the rooms: it places the furniture you pick, or lets the AI pick it from the room’s type and size. Every install comes with a free trial.

Version 3.4.0 · 0.6 MB · Blender 4.2.5 or newer · Windows, macOS and Linux

Install it in five steps

  1. Download the zip

    Keep it zipped: Blender installs the zip itself.

  2. Install it in Blender

    Drag the zip into Blender’s window and confirm Install. Or open Edit › Preferences › Get Extensions, click ⌄ at the top right, choose Install from Disk… and pick the zip.

  3. Allow online access

    Edit › Preferences › System › Network › Allow Online Access. Arka furnishes the rooms on its server, and Blender starts with online access off.

  4. Open the Arka tab

    In the 3D Viewport, press N and pick the Arka tab in the sidebar.

  5. Draw, then furnish

    Draw walls: a closed loop becomes a room. Choose the room’s type and click Auto furnish, and the AI picks the furniture and places it. Or add pieces to the room’s list yourself and click Furnish.

    Or let Arka design the house: in the Generating panel pick an outline as the Boundary and click Generate. The rooms are laid out in a few seconds, around the outline’s entrance and windows, and ◀ ▶ shows other layouts.

Furnish and every Live update use 1 furnish; Auto furnish uses 1 Auto furnish (plus 1 furnish while Live is on).

If something is off

Safari unzipped the download

Safari opens “safe” files after downloading, and a zip counts as one. Turn off Safari › Settings › General › Open “safe” files after downloading, then download the zip again.

The Arka panel says “Online access is off”

Click Allow Online Access… in the panel and tick Allow Online Access on the page it opens.

Blender won’t install the zip

Arka needs Blender 4.2.5 or newer. Help › About shows your version.

Updating to a new version

Download the new zip and install it the same way. Your trial counter and license key are kept.

What does the add-on send?

With each furnish: the room’s outline (its wall corners), its doors and windows, the furniture list and your Auto furnish notes; with Generate: the boundary’s outline and its doors and windows and the rooms you picked; with every request, the add-on and Blender version, your platform, a random token that identifies the install and, once activated, your license key. With the Arka assistant: your messages, a short summary of the scene (the rooms, their types and sizes, the storeys, the roof, the materials) and, when it looks, a picture of the viewport, sent to Anthropic: straight from Blender with your own Anthropic key, or through Arka on Arka’s AI. Nothing else from your scene or your files.
