In this course, you will be introduced to core modeling concepts in Vectorworks software. Starting with key 2D modeling techniques, you will learn how to create and manipulate 2D forms. Then, you will explore fundamental 3D modeling workflows.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
This guide and tutorial will introduce you to key concepts of Vectorworks and how you can gain efficiency by adopting Vectorworks for your complete project cycle. The exercises in the tutorial are designed to help you understand the structure and behavior of Vectorworks to make the transition from Rhino to Vectorworks easier and manageable.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
When it’s time to transform an idea into a digital 3D form, it all comes down to understanding the tools you use. There are multiple ways to achieve the same shape, so best practices with 3D modeling tools vary based on your design intent, skill level, and the complexity of your project. Join Rob Hollis, RA, as he explores the various toolsets and features that enable custom modeling for a variety of project types. This beginner session will focus on general navigation, solid modeling, and basic editing behaviors in Vectorworks.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Join Paul Beaty-Pownall, managing director at bpr architects, as he explains how his office leverages 3D modeling to provide information at each stage of the design process. Attendees will explore this process through a case study example of proposals for a new train station at West Hampstead in London. Attendees will also learn how to structure a model to manage design changes and how to make the best use of the 3D environment to explore better design solutions.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Visualizations are a key component of landscape design and have been from day one. Professionals approach this process differently, and some continue to embrace the more time-intensive hand-drawn methods, while others utilize CAD, 3D modeling, and image-editing technology. Although each of these are successful to some degree, revisions are inevitable, and the time it takes to reconstruct these illustrations in multiple platforms could be greatly reduced by fine-tuning the design in one application.
Witness the power and efficiencies gained by 3D modeling in Vectorworks®Landmark as Tony Kostreski, landscape product marketing specialist at Vectorworks, Inc., builds various features for a residential garden using a combination of landscape-specific tools and commonly used 3D modeling processes. Attendees will learn how to maximize communication for the success of any project and why the mention of "revisions" shouldn't cause fear of going over budget.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
When it’s time to transform an idea into a digital 3D form, it all comes down to understanding the tools that you use. This advanced class will help you determine best practices for 3D modeling and will introduce you to more complex modeling capabilities in Vectorworks. Join Luis M. Ruiz, Int. Assoc. AIA, as he explores the advanced tool sets and features that enable custom modeling for a variety of project types. Part 2 of this class will focus on the deform tool, NURBS curves and surfaces, and subdivision modeling.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
In this overview, you will learn how to use the Triangle tool. The triangle tool is found in the Basic tool palette.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
The 3D solids modeling commands in Vectorworks are now much more flexible and intuitive, supporting nearly endless permutations and combinations — both in the sequence of creating an object, as well as in modifying specific steps later in the design process. When you need to change something, there’s no need to “start again,” which enables more natural and iterative modeling.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
In this video, we will show how to draw rectangles, using different drawing modes provided by the Rectangle tool.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
In this overview, we will show how to draw and adjust rounded rectangles.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
In this overview, you will learn how to create basic shapes with corner vertices using the 2D Polygon tool.
