"We were able to channel efficiencies from the documentation phase back into design. 3D-based design enabled us to develop architectural solutions that otherwise would not have been possible. Teamwork has allowed us to collaborate on large projects within the office, and recently, BIMcloud allowed us to collaborate between offices. 3D …

"We are very satisfied with the results obtained with the exchange of information with other specialized software, using the IFC file format."

"Having a 3D model has been worth its weight in gold."

"Concept and documentation are two different worlds today. Our goal is to make Archicad a tool for gathering these different tasks into one, cohesive workflow,"

"Ninety percent of our clientele returns for more business."

"The architectural part of the project was done in Archicad using Teamwork, a feature that allows each architect involved to see the entire project, track all the changes and avoid errors."

"Thanks to the OPEN BIM workflow, participants can use a variety of software and consistently operate professionally. Using the IFC BIM data exchange, professionals were elevated to a higher level. All of this prevented many mistakes, and the quality of the documentation was much greater. BIM made it possible to …

"By sharing a small-scale project, we wanted to give a practical example of how to implement BIM from the very beginning of a project. Many architects still don’t see the benefits of using BIM in the early concept design phase. For us, and for our clients, the workflow and the …

"“As opposed to other companies, we do not deem that BIM is the future; we deem it is the present. BIM is part of our design workflow today. We believe that BIM will soon be compulsory, and that professionals who do not adopt it will gradually lose market share."

"You start with a more precise foundation and you can jump from drawing details back to overall design approaches and vice versa. Here, ARCHICAD is a unique tool compared to other BIM programs."

"We decided to try writing an ARCHICAD library element in GDL. It turned out that the latter was much faster and could be applied to the ARCHICAD tools in a more convenient way."

"With BIM, any mistake is a critical mistake. This calls for a meticulous working process and a BIM-compatible mindset from our designers. This is the reason why we ensure that they get the proper training and the necessary mentorship leading to implementing the best practices."

"When you have something as powerful as Archicad , it raises the bar for all other aspects of the business. There’s no part of our business that shouldn’t be as good as this software."

"If it wasn’t for Archicad, maybe we wouldn’t have completed the project in time. Most likely with 2DCAD, walkthroughs or renderings would have been too late for client approval. Also, the client would not have understood our design proposal so well from the initial design stage."

"The execution speed of this project was exclusively due to Archicad, which was able to transform a sketch into data, that was immediately validated by the engineering team."
