Description

You can accelerate your ability to scale by analyzing your site in real-time with your design. This allows you to concentrate on what's most important: making a lasting impression on your communities. Quickly view your idea from all angles. Follow your instincts, draw your idea, and Giraffe will do the rest: overlaying data, querying, and automatically calculating your proof-of-concept. Data discovery allows you to view the most current local mapping data for your site. Giraffe can combine maps from any source and treat them as layers. It allows you to sort, group and analyze them. Engage your stakeholders by giving them a 360-degree view of the potential for a site. For increased community engagement, provide viewer access to the plan. This includes context and images. Giraffe allows you to create something you feel confident in and share it when it's ready. You can quickly review plans in a shared space.

Description

Vectorworks Architect stands out as the BIM solution with unparalleled support for various file formats, enabling you to consolidate all essential project information and facilitating the entire process of conceptual design, site planning, and analysis within a single platform. You can swiftly validate your design intentions while moving from massing models to more refined concept models. Unlike many BIM programs that may stifle creativity, Vectorworks encourages artistic expression, allowing users to sketch, model, and document their design concepts with accuracy and flexibility thanks to advanced drafting tools and a robust 3D modeling engine powered by SIEMENS Parasolid. This means you have the freedom to create without being constrained by predefined settings or limitations, empowering you to bring any imaginative design to life. Harnessing the full potential of the "I" in Building Information Modeling is crucial for enhancing your designs and ensuring they meet your vision. By prioritizing creative freedom, Vectorworks Architect fosters an environment where innovative design can thrive.
