Tech/Engineering - Computers (general)
German term or phrase: raumübergreifend
Context:
Im digitalen Projektentwurf lassen sich gestalterische und funktionale Anforderungen über das Formalisieren von Regeln viel einfacher umsetzen; Repetitionen, Variationen und Adaptionen übernimmt der Rechner. Dreidimensionale, **raumübergreifende** Zusammenhänge können am Computer konstruiert und dargestellt, aber auch auf ihre Funktion überprüft werden.

spatially integrated
Explanation:
"spatial" is a bit too little here, IMO.
It is = Raum => räumlich, but not ncessarily "übergreifend".
I would use the above.

Explanation:
Don't know if your text is about architectural design or e.g. some sort of electronic bus system (like KNX/EIB Interbus, which was my first thought), but this (or 'overall') might fit either way to emphasize the added functionality you get from digital design.
