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.

AIA CES: 1.5 LUs
Integrated Design | Increased Productivity | Better Presentations
Discover why more firms are switching to Archicad. There’s never been a better time than this economic disruption to re-evaluate your design and documentation tools as well as your project workflow, and to prepare yourself for the increased competitiveness on the horizon.“Archicad has, at the end of the day, given us a tool with which to be much better architects, and we want to fully utilize that in order to achieve a high level of design”
– David Grooms, Principal, Vega Architecture
“It’s an opportunity for software simplification. We consolidated multiple seats of AutoCAD, Revit, 3dsMax and Lumion into Archicad licenses.”
– Jerrod Nichols, Project Manager, Fuse Architecture
“We used to use SketchUp a lot more in early design but find we need it less and less when using Archicad.”
– Stefan Hampden, Principal, CAST Architecture
“If you immerse a client in BIMx, they’re going to see it. They’re gonna see the scale, relationship, the size, the quality of that space in materials. So, they’ll get an excellent idea of what their project is really about.”
– Thomas C. Levi, Principal, LWDA
“It’s elevated our interview process, collaboration with clients and communication with contractors. No other program provides “real-time” coordination with our consultants as we can with BIMcloud.”
– Jeannie Bertolaccini, Principal, Ordiz-Melby Architects
