The most environmentally responsible building may be one
that’s already built.
In this webinar, learn how François Lévy, architect and principal
at François Lévy Architecture + Interiors, used BIM softwarwe to serve a church
congregation in its decision-making process regarding the fate of its damaged
parish hall. The firm used a variety of tools, such as Space objects,
worksheets, data visualization, and Point Cloud photogrammetry, to evaluate the
building rehabilitation and explore options to undertake the project
efficiently in phases.

Firms are adopting
Building Information Modeling (BIM) at a faster rate than ever before. To make
the most of the tools at your disposal, you need a complete picture of the
options available to make a better-informed decision on achieving more
effective project collaboration.
This presentation, hosted by Vectorworks' Luka Stefanovic, will demonstrate how you
can collaborate with your project stakeholders at every project stage, review
tools, and workflows to help you start a project on the right foot, and
demonstrate success in every phase of the project from design to construction
and building operation.

Discover best practices for model coordination during the design phases and using model validation and issue management workflows.
Comprehend owner requirements for built asset management and ensure correct data delivery for a successful project handoff.
Space objects are one of the most versatile and hardest
working of all the BIM features, serving the needs of every design phase of an
architectural project. Among their many capabilities, Space objects enable you
to plan a project in 2D or 3D, verify building code and zoning compliance,
report data about themselves and their contents, assemble room finish
information, and accurately visualize their data.
Join Vectorworks Architect product specialist Neil Barman in
this webinar as he examines real-use cases for architectural and interior
design workflows that leverage the power of spaces.

Discover the power of rendering tools available in Vectorworks to help visualize your designs.
Learn how to create drawings from your 3D models to communicate your project’s design intent.
Review best practices for creating great presentations to impress your professors.
Design firms often rely on one
set of tools for concept modeling, another for Building Information Modeling
(BIM), and another for drafting construction details.
This fragmented workflow could be
more efficient, considering most BIM software prioritizes documentation over
design, limiting free-form modeling, and sketch tools need more robust
analytics to evaluate building performance early on.
This presentation, hosted by
François Lévy, architect and principal at François Lévy Architecture +
Interiors, offers an alternative workflow.
You’ll witness a unified design
process using Vectorworks for sketch modeling and early analytics as a stepping
stone to a comprehensive approach to BIM, detailing, and rendering.
