How the IDS CAD Team Engineers Fun

Creating an unforgettable themed space takes more than imagination—it requires precision, innovation, and expertise. At IDS, our Computer-Aided Design (CAD) team plays a pivotal role in transforming your vision into reality. Led by Casey, the head of our CAD department, we’re taking you behind the scenes to see how we combine creativity with engineering to deliver world-class custom fabrication and theming solutions.


From Concept to Reality: Bringing Your Space to Life

The CAD department is where our themed spaces start to take shape. Using concept sketches as a foundation, we create detailed designs that account for space planning, structural engineering, and compliance with building codes.

One critical part of this process is ensuring accessibility. As head of the CAD department, Casey ensures every design adheres to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Barrier-Free Design requirements. These considerations guarantee a safe, inclusive environment for all who visit your space.


Custom Fabrication and Scaled Perfection

When your project reaches the CAD stage, we integrate your architectural plans into specialized software, creating a 3D model of your space. This allows us to precisely scale the theming elements to fit your office while designing the internal steel structures that will safely secure them.

This step is vital to ensuring your custom-fabricated theming is not only engaging and visually stunning but also structurally sound and safe. The 3D models serve as a blueprint for routering foam blocks, providing a solid base for our sculptors to craft detailed, life-like designs.


In-House Manufacturing Excellence

At IDS, we believe quality control is non-negotiable, which is why we handle every step of the process in-house. Our manufacturing facilities in Alberta and Florida allow us to maintain the highest standards of craftsmanship. Every piece of theming we create is designed to be “kid-proof,” a term we use to reflect our focus on durability and safety.

  • What can they touch?
  • What can they climb on?
  • How will we ensure their safety?

These are the questions we answer during the custom fabrication and manufacturing process. From the internal steel structures to the sculpted exteriors and colorful finishes, every element of your theming is engineered to endure years of wear and tear.


Durability Meets Imagination

The CAD team is responsible for ensuring that every element of your 3D theming is meticulously designed and built to last. From the initial sketch to the final installation, we combine engineering expertise, custom fabrication, and manufacturing precision to deliver results that exceed expectations.

When you partner with IDS, you can trust that your themed space has been engineered from the inside out to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment that stands the test of time—and enthusiastic testing by your youngest visitors.
