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 us to examine…
- How to model existing conditions quickly and accurately
- How to increase productivity with documentation and details of existing and new construction
- How to manage phases and renovation filters to control the display of drawings
In this presentation we will review an adaptive reuse project from Heather Young Architects that converts an existing 1980’s commercial building into a modern, open air structure. We will review how the HYA used Archicad to manage multiple tenant options, visualize the building renovation, document the project and communicate design intent with 3D based detailing.

As the economy rebounds home remodels account for a large part of construction projects but managing the various stages can be a struggle. Join this BIM in 30 Minutes webinar to explore why Archicad is the leading renovation solution for architecture firms, design-build, and interior designers.
We will review projects from several firms including Passacantando Architects who “use the renovation filter to help see what needs to remain and what could be torn down”, explained Andrew Passacantando when talking about the recent renovation of a historic home. “Showing the existing conditions and proposed changes made it easier for us to communicate with the folks involved in approving our ideas.”
Managing a Remodel
The Renovation Filter is a powerful tool in Archicad to organize the phases of a remodel including existing, demo, after demolition, new construction, and planned status.
Presenting Design Options
Easily manage different design options for presentations and early design iterations with Renovation Filters, Layers, and Saved Views.
Modeling Existing Details
If you know how to draft a 2D detail then you’ll be able to easily model custom extrusions for eave details, interior moldings, structural footings, and much more.
