2D to 3D Without BIM
Feb 18 @ 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm

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…
We will discuss how clients use ArchiCAD in a hybrid-BIM workflow that allows them to be more productive including…

2D to 3D | Why Make the Transition to BIM | Bainbridge
Feb 26 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

If you’re still using 2D CAD such as AutoCAD or Vectorworks and you’re curious about BIM you should attend this seminar where we’ll introduce you to:

  • An overview of BIM (Building Information Modeling)
  • Advantages and benefits of an integrated 2D/3D workflow
  • How to create a smooth transition from traditional CAD to BIM

While 2D CAD systems are very powerful for drafting they fall short when coordinating project changes. This is why businesses are shifting to BIM to increase productivity and streamline a project’s workflow to:

  • Avoid mistakes due to different modifications
  • Improve the coordination between the different disciplines
  • Better analyze the building’s properties
  • and much more…

Real-Time Visualization for Design | Bainbridge
Feb 26 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

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)
