Interiors & Interoperability with ARCHICAD
Oct 15 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

Join the Interior Design team from CJMW Architecture as they share their experiences in using BIM to collaborate, improve communication and reduce project errors!

Interior Design with ARCHICAD

Based in North Carolina, the team at CJMW Architecture have long used Building Information Modelling (BIM) for the efficiency it brings to their entire design process – from concept development through to presentation. With ARCHICAD as their BIM solution, the Interior Design team are able to easily collaborate with external stakeholders who sometimes use different BIM software products. Best of all, they can maintain their preferred level of skill, design and detailing, without compromising on the accurate sharing of data or project information.

In this webinar, members of the CJMW Interior Design team will demonstrate how the use of BIM has not only improved their design processes, but also changed their design techniques and methodology – ultimately resulting in better interior architecture. Providing real-world examples of this tried-and-true workflow, they will also show ARCHICAD ‘ups their design game’; improves client relations and communication; and delivers accurate documentation that can reduce errors on the job site.

By the end of this webinar, attendees will uncover:

  • The design process that CJMW developed using ARCHICAD
  • How applying that process can streamline a broken workflow (no more doubling work)
  • How ARCHICAD handles detailed and complex design
  • How built-in features of ARCHICAD enhance client understanding of design intent
About CJMW Architecture

For more than a century CJMW has provided a full range of planning, architectural and interior design services. An ARCHICAD firm since 2005, CJMW has produced award-winning work on restaurants, hotels, senior living communities, corporate offices, and public venues.

Rethink the Future | Building Together | AIA California
Sep 2 @ 12:30 pm – 1:30 pm

AIA California invites you to hear from a selection of Graphisoft clients that are part of By Design, an award-winning digital series that explores the benefits of BIM in design, effects of the COVID crisis and a vision for “live” integrated collaboration.

Presented by Thomas M. Simmons, President of ARCHVISTA Consulting, this webinar explores
how California architects are adapting to a new business climate by migrating to a design focused BIM process, adapting “live” integrated design collaboration and using hyper-models for presentations.

He will share video excerpts of interviews with KAA Design Group, Studio Como, QKA and Yates Construction where they will discuss how they’re adapting to a time of disruption and plans for increased competition.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn how “live” integrated design can help your firm stay competitive and decrease the project schedule.
  • Review new technologies for design collaboration including BIMcloud and BIMx.
  • Understand why COVID is accelerating BIM implementation and its effect on collaboration in the AEC industry.
  • Explore why a crisis is the best time for a business to make a change in technology, culture and process.
