Automated manufacturing architectural millwork

A method for constructing a unit, comprising:

• providing, to a user, a user interface comprising a design interface;
• receiving, from the design interface, a plurality of design parameters for the unit, the plurality of unit parameters comprising at least two of the set of:
• a type of the unit, a length of the unit, a height of the unit, a width of the unit, a depth of the unit, a number of doors of the unit, a number of other peripherals of the unit, and a number of adjacencies of the unit;
• automatically constructing, from the specified plurality of parameters, a virtual illustration of the unit meeting the specified plurality of parameters;
• computing, from the plurality of unit parameters, project data associated with a plurality of parts for constructing the unit;
• saving, in a digital account, at least two in the set:
• the plurality of unit parameters, the project data, and user metadata;
• generating and sending, from the user interface, a supplier order comprising at least one of the plurality of unit parameters and the project data;
• generating, from the project data, manufacturing data, wherein the manufacturing data comprises a set of instructions for a programmable manufacturing machine associated with the plurality of parts, a material list, and unit assembly data;
• providing a material on the material list to a programmable manufacturing machine;
• and
• executing the set of instructions to generate the plurality of parts from the material,
• wherein the unit is modeled as a set in a network of sets comprising at least one parent set and a plurality of child sets, the at least one first parent set corresponds to an overall space, each parent set has at least two corresponding child sets, and each child set has one corresponding parent set.
