Stevens Lawson Architects

Established in 2002, Auckland-based Stevens Lawson Architects is a growing practice with expertise in bespoke residential design and community buildings that have a significant social impact.
Developed for the Auckland City Mission, HomeGround is a visionary social services and supportive living facility. It is the tallest mass timber building in New Zealand, setting a new precedent for low-embodied carbon design.
This project was the architects’ inaugural Archicad project, and the team used the software from early design through to construction, making use of many of Archicad’s in-built functionality including Teamwork, Sun Studies and Renovation Filters, and also established their office standards for using Archicad from the start to ensure consistency across all projects.


Athletes’ Village Paris

The challenge of creating the infrastructure to host global athletics events is a familiar one for cities around the world, with the need to deliver sustainable buildings that will offer a lasting benefit to the community.
To meet this sustainability demand, the Parisian design team behind the Athletes’ Village applied an innovative approach to usage and prefabricated materials, creating structures that responded to the environment, meeting both short and long-term needs.


Farkasvölgyi Arquitetos Associados – Arena MRV

Farkasvölgyi Arquitetos Associados’ journey intertwines with the evolution of Archicad itself. The team have become pioneers in Latin America since they adopted the software in 1996. Embracing BIM for well over two decades, they’ve consistently integrated it into all their projects.
Among their recent notable collaborations with Archicad is Clube Atlético Mineiro’s Arena MRV, a multipurpose facility in Belo Horizonte, MG unveiled in 2023.
