Rethink BIM | Design to Virtual Reality
Mar 20 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Rethink BIM | Design to Virtual Reality @ AIA San Francisco

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.

You’ll hear firms discuss their strategies for using BIM in the design phase including…
  • 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.

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
