1. Simply start modeling
In Archicad, your intuition comes first. Just start working and let your ideas flow. It’s easy thanks to features like the wall tool and the large, integrated libraries with predefined objects such as windows, doors, and furnishings. Define component properties at any time, and to a high level of detail.
2. Designs are just a click away
Archicad saves you valuable time. You only need to create a 3D model once – and simply press a button to generate the associated floor plans, sections, and elevations. Every change you make to your building model is automatically transferred to all plans. This happens in the background, in a matter of seconds. Archicad intelligently taps into unused processor resources ensuring a smooth, uninterrupted workflow.
3. Always up-to-date material list
Archicad automatically creates lists of all model elements such as walls, windows, doors, railings, beams, or façade elements. View the current component schedules at any time and adjust the list directly.
4. Easy data exchange
Export and share model data with colleagues thanks to the integrated publisher — with just one click. Archicad supports more than 40 export formats and, with its IFC interface, facilitates open collaboration and integrated workflows with engineers.
5. Work in a team
Edit your project on multiple workstations, even simultaneously and from multiple locations. The Teamwork function in BIMcloud helps you stay in sync with all members of the project.
6. Compelling visualizations
Bring your project to life for your clients – with an impressive presentation via desktop, notebook, tablet, or even smartphone. Simply export a BIMx file. With the BIMx mobile app, you always have your designs at hand and can present them in 2D, 3D, and via a virtual walk-through.
7. Archicad Keeps Getting Better
One of Archicad’s strenghts is that it is constantly evolving. Our regular updates gives you access to significant productivity and efficiency improvements – especially when working in a team or together with external partners.
