Architectural design is not one-size-fits-all, so BIM workflows shouldn’t be, either. That’s why Vectorworks Architect, one of the industry’s top BIM software programs, is built around an architect’s design process. The design-oriented BIM focus of Architect allows you to conceptualize and edit your project, while generating drawings and schedule in real time. This added benefit lets you refine construction details without compromising your creative process or scope of work.

Idle Architecture is known for and take pride in tackling large projects — something that is traditionally not done with small firms, let alone executed successfully.
With Vectorworks, we can work consistently in one program — from the first stroke to the window detail.

3+1 Architects were faced with a unique challenge in following strict standards to design the Tallinn School of Music and Ballet. From the technical aspects to meet the school’s requirements, to the data documentation to meet Estonia’s public building mandates, the firm used Vectorworks to keep information organized in one place.
Data rich information is generated automatically from our models. This allows us to concentrate on the design process, whilst Vectorworks manages the exchange of data between different software packages for us.

The ARP ArchitektenPartnerschaft office uses BIM extensively for various design tasks. In essence, they are successfully integrating practical BIM, which reduces risk in every step of the process.
From Crouse College at Syracuse University to the National Grid Building, the team at King + King Architects upholds a long history exploring the forefront of design — a philosophy they maintain today through their forward-thinking outlook on adapting to the latest in technology and BIM.
Vectorworks BIM integrates easily with all members of the team, allowing us to easily coordinate with engineers, contractors, and even subcontractors.

Osar architects is seen as an icon in the healthcare sector, with hospitals, psychiatric institutions, and structured residential care centers as part of their portfolio. With projects of this scale, the inevitability these architects would use BIM led to Osar executing their projects in a more structured way.

By using BIM for the Scott Headquarters, IttenBrechbühl achieved precise designs based on improved collaboration among team members throughout the process.
Heren 5 architecten faced a different way of working when asked for a design-build delivery. Using BIM allowed them to seamlessly collaborate with contractors on The Italiëlaan, a stunning public park in Haarlem, the Netherlands.
KBNK Architects are masters of 2D drafting and planning who discovered Big BIM workflows by a client’s request. The project in question, a modeling of 12 apartment buildings at the SonninPark in Hamburg-St. Georg, shows just how intuitive collaborating with BIM can be.
