Lisa McRavey and Iain Lyon are Senior Landscape Architects with independent Scottish Landscape Architecture studio RaeburnFarquharBowen. The practice embraces sustainable design, with particular expertise in green infrastructure and community co-design – designing for both people and nature. This presentation follows on from their 2020 Design Day presentation, ‘Design with Nature, Design with Data’, and looks at how data-rich Vectorworks projects can be used to communicate information in different ways. It explores data communication with design team colleagues throughout the life of a project, and discusses the possibilities of Vectorworks as a working tool to help inform the design process. It also considers innovative methods of publicly sharing finalised designs in dynamic and interactive ways, and demonstrates how these Vectorworks projects can be used to generate dynamic output far richer than static drawings - including through the use of partnership software such as ArcGIS and TwinMotion.
