I find Archicad to be an integral product for designing buildings as an architect. It is the primary tool I use to manage, coordinate, and develop project design information from concept to construction. Archicad consolidates drawings, schedules, and technical information within a single model, ensuring consistency across the drawing set and reducing the risk of coordination errors. I particularly like the efficiency of drawing production and the ability to implement changes centrally, which I find especially beneficial. The single model environment allows all project information to be developed and managed collectively, improving consistency across outputs, reducing duplication of work, and supporting a more efficient workflow, particularly at the technical and construction stages. While the initial setup required investment and a learning curve, establishing office templates, libraries, and drawing standards provided a strong foundation for consistent and coordinated project delivery and made the system intuitive and efficient to use. I also often export from Archicad into Twinmotion for visualizations.

It s intuitive, versatile and a powerful BIM tool

Archicad has a beautiful, intuitive interface and is great for fast, clean modeling — especially in early design phases. I appreciated its visual clarity, smoother rendering capabilities, and how user-friendly it felt at first. For smaller teams or design-driven workflows, it's a powerful tool with solid results. It also handles 2D and 3D in a fluid way.
