Stand Out Among the Crowd: Archicad Software Tutorial

Please R.S.V.P. here

Join SOA alumnus Vincent Boutaud, BIM Consultant, for a workshop on ARCHICAD workflows

From early design concepts to a finished project, ARCHICAD workflow allows all stake holders a way to design freely and intuitively. Create an Interactive Mobile Portfolio. Leverage the power of the Free BIMx app and stand out from the crowd! The projects you design are awesome, and should  be shared on an equally awesome platform. Save time and get better designs with a seamless workflow.

Impress your professors and potential employers by having them view your projects in a smart 3D interactive environment. They can walk-through the building, do a fly through and even select different elements for details including material and dimensions. Join us to learn how to easily convert your projects from a static file into a stunning mobile interactive experience that will surely help your portfolio shine.

  • ARCHICAD 22, delivers design tool improvements and introduces enhanced design workflow processes. These represent significant performance improvements and productivity enhancements to its core design processes as well as to multidisciplinary collaborative workflows.
  • BIMX, a mobile app that allows project models to be synced to the latest version in the cloud and allows for stunning design presentations.
  • Google Cardboard support for BIMX. New VR functionality added to BIMx with Google Cardboard viewer (version 2.0) for Android and iOS smart phones allows users to navigate in the 3D space simply by turning their heads in the desired direction.
  • Rhino – Grasshopper – ARCHICAD connection. This bi-directional connection includes the Rhino Export Add-In that allows users to pass on the geometry of a model made in ARCHICAD to Rhino efficiently, this live connection also allows for any Rhino/Grasshopper design geometry to be converted directly into BIM construction elements.

GRAPHISOFT has been supporting the AIAS Quad Conferences and we will also have a similar workshop for the upcoming East Conference at Wentworth in March.

As you know some challenge for today’s architectural programs: to materially and measurably empower students to improve human lives with technology. In response, Graphisoft provides the latest, fully functional education version of ARCHICAD BIM software to students, teachers/professors, and schools for FREE.

Students also have access to our recently updated ARCHICAD Training and Resources, available on our Education Portal. This includes narrated video clips, exercise files and quizzes, as well as ARCHICAD project files for hands-on practice, making learning ARCHICAD fun and easy!

It is extremely fast and easy to download. All you have to do is register and download the ArchiCAD installation files from  MyARCHICAD.com and follow the step by step installation descriptions. After this is done your information will be submitted for approval, at which point we will approve you and then you will receive a Username and serial number. The registration process is the same for all students, teachers and schools. If you have any questions, please contact them at [email protected].
