Many architects still use 2D software in spite of the fact that 3D is increasingly implemented in design and construction. 3D often connotes BIM or Building Information Modeling, which can feel big and cumbersome.
– But it doesn’t have to be!
ArchiCAD’s all-in-one solution offers flexible 2D/3D tools not only for BIM modeling but also for non-BIM tasks such as:
- Modeling with “Sketch-Up” style tools
- Producing sketch and photo renderings
- Developing presentations
- Detailing production drawings
- Generating building schedules
- Improving drawing coordination
- Accessing projects on mobile devices
- and much more…

Struggling with BIM in design? Are your clients requiring interactive 3D models or Virtual Reality? You’re not alone!
Firms are rethinking their approach to BIM as technology savvy clients expect more from architecture design services.
Join us to hear architects discuss why they’re shifting BIM earlier in the design process, how this is impacting their business profitability and why a growing number of firms are switching to ARCHICAD, a design focused BIM platform. We’ll discuss how to use ARCHICAD as a design tool including as a replacement to SketchUp, to develop project presentations and as a bridge to immersion technologies such as BIMx, Google Cardboard VR, HTC Vive and Oculus Rift.
- Laney LA
- Joseph Vance Architects
- CORE Architecture
- KA DesignWorks
- CAST Architecture
- HapstakDemetriou+
What you will learn:
- Discover why firms are rethinking their approach to BIM.
- Discuss the impact of technology savvy clients and their expectations for architectural design services.
- Understand the opportunity for presenting your design ideas through interactive 3D models or virtual reality such as BIMx, Google Cardboard VR, HTC Vive and Oculus Rift.
- Learn why architects are increasingly switching to ARCHICAD’s design focused platform.

Forward-thinking architecture firms and interior designers are increasingly leaning on real-time visualization to explore, evaluate, and present designs. By providing clients and project stakeholders the opportunity to experience spaces in interactive and immersive environments, real-time technology offers a compelling method for communication.
The next generation of architectural visualization tools is providing new ways to accelerate workflows. More intuitive user interfaces are drastically reducing learning curves, while offering new ways to quickly and easily connect to BIM software for increased productivity and faster iterations.
In this course you will learn:
- A review of software solutions that offer real-time visualization.
- How real-time visualization can be used as a design tool for architecture and interior design.
- Hardware required to run real-time visualization solutions.
- Process to integrate 3D BIM models and how you update project changes.
- Adding and editing materials, lights, furnishings and landscape elements.
- How to create and render still images and animations
- The process to use real-time visualization with VR (virtual reality)

Join this BIM in 30 Minutes webinar to discover how easy it is to convert 2D detail drawings into 3D model details. You’ll see how this technique can be used for different types of detailing including residential, commercial, retail and historical. Learn how to:
- Convert a 2D drawing into a 3D detail.
- Connect building materials to details for visualization and schedules.
- Extract a 2D detail drawing from a 3D detail with annotation.
Timothy Ball with jhd Architects rarely draws in 2D. He prefers to resolve design and construction details in 3D. “You can’t fake it in 3D” says Ball. When you model in 3D with detail “you have the confidence that what you are designing can actually be built.”

The Key is Reducing Repetitive Tasks
There’s no doubt that creating drawings for design and construction documents can be tedious. But what’s often overlooked are the many repetitive tasks that can be streamlined to reduce errors and save time.
A survey by Graphisoft reported that architects who document a project with Archicad see an average productivity boost of 38%. Learn how firms automate and improve the accuracy of plans, elevations, sections, details and schedules.
Christopher Lee, Principal at Design Associates Architects, shared his experience… “my elevations are automatically generated, all my sections are automatically generated, all my schedules are being generated. Every time I drop a door or window in the plan, it lands on a schedule. All that background stuff is being managed automatically”.
