McCall Design & Planning
McCall Design & Planning was using Archicad when I came aboard 14 years ago. We appreciate the seamless 3D to 2D interface. Time spent developing the 3D model for our preliminary designs translates directly into less time in the construction drawing phase. After years of operating from the same templates and modules, we hired Link…

Isaman design, Inc
Isaman Design has been using Archicad solely for the past 6+ years. Before that we were using multiple programs and tripling the work. Making the company wide switch to Archicad seemed like an easy decision, but we had many questions. How steep was the learning curve? When would we become efficient users? Where do we start?…

Archipelago Design
Archicad has been part of my professional life from many years. After a short time drafting with the usual software suspects, I began using Archicad in 1999. It was amazing software then, and it has been with me ever since. My firm periodically considers the competition, and we find there is nothing as comprehensive, easy…

Archicad has been a part of our office for the past 20 years. To me, the program has consistently afforded me the opportunity to integrate into our work, the Vitruvian principles of firmness, commodity, and delight, time and time again. We are a small office with a big time program, that can handle any building…

HH Design
When you are a small design practice, time is money and Archicad allows us to consolidate our workflow from start to finish. We are able to diagram in schematic design and use the same model in the field during construction. Our client’s are always excited to put themselves inside each iteration of the BIMx model…

Pacifico Associates
We model, render, teach, design and produce construction documents using Archicad and the most compelling reason to use the software has been the fact that on every job we have found constructability issues that Archicad has help us resolve.

Peter Benoit Architect, Inc.
I decided to invest in Archicad after my first year in business as a new firm. I was a small studio of three people at the time, working in AutoCAD 2D. My initial interest was in BIM’s production capability (self-coordinating schedules with drawings, live-updates to plan/section/elevation, etc.), but I quickly realized Archicad was also an…

I love my Mac and needed a design program that was intuitive and designed for architects. Archicad just made sense. It’s built how we think and I love that. It was critical to me to be able to show residential clients 3D and it’s integration with BIM viewer has proved to be beyond compare in […]

Michael Venechuk / Architect
I’ve been an Archicad user for about 18 years. Beginning with Archicad 5 through to Archicad 21. Before, I would use another 2D drafting program for my initial design work and create a floor plan. Then I would import it into Archicad and created a nice 3d model – but revisions were a bit of […]

We have been able to turn projects around quicker and produce drawings that are better coordinated with our consulting engineers. Archicad allows us to make changes quicker and to simply do things we couldn’t do with other software. We have fewer change orders and conflicts between disciplines in the construction phase.

“Switching from Autodesk products to Archicad enabled me to reduce the size of my firm and increase productivity. Without Archicad, my firm would not be as productive and profitable as it is now.” Richard Youngblood, Owner, Youngblood Architecture

Matthew Rao – RAO Design Studio, Inc.
It was amazing how Archicad impacted my design process and provided a level of detail and realism that is not possible with any other program. Teamwork allows our team to work remotely, while the use of BIMx and realistic rendering in the software takes our communications skills to the next level. We are able to […]

Teamwork and BIMcloud have been perfect for our practice – allowing us to collaborate internally and externally, wherever we happen to be working!

When I started my practice in 1991 I moved directly from hand drafting on mylar to ArchiCAD. My firm has used it continuously (and exclusively) since then. We use only ARCHICAD and BIMx. They have transformed the entire way we design and produce drawings. From the very beginning we saw an increase in profit from using…
