This specification describes systems, methods, devices, and other techniques for planning workspaces for automated fabrication processes. A computing system facilitates planning by receiving a set of parameters for planning a layout of a workspace for an automated fabrication process, and generating a plurality of candidate workspace layouts, including selecting, for each candidate workspace layout, (i) one or more robots for performing tasks in the automated fabrication process and (ii) corresponding locations for the one or more robots within the workspace. The system determines an optimal workspace layout based on the plurality of candidate workspace layouts, generates a workspace layout specification for the optimal workspace layout, and provides the workspace layout specification to one or more second computing systems.
