Building Information Modeling for Every Design Phase

With more support for common file formats than other BIM solutions, Vectorworks Architect can pull together all the necessary information to start a project, providing everything needed for conceptual design, massing models, site planning, and analysis all in one interface. Easily transition from massing models to a BIM model, visualize concepts with integrated 3D rendering, and share high-quality graphics with the entire team through Vectorworks Cloud Services. As project detail increases, Vectorworks facilitates smooth consultant coordination, data reporting, and cost estimation. Using parametric and 3D data-driven BIM tools from project inception maintains model quality and allows for seamless design updates while making construction documentation a breeze.

Work With Anyone

Vectorworks Architect enables easy collaboration and file sharing with colleagues, consultants, and clients. Vectorworks offers the most default import/export capabilities available, including direct import of Revit®, SketchUp®, Rhino®, Photoshop®, and Cinema4D® file formats, as well as robust support for openBIM, IFC, and BCF.

VectorWorks Architect file import/export capabilities

Emerging Technology

Technology in architectural modeling is advancing rapidly and Vectorworks makes new technologies accessible such as:

  • Native support for Apple’s Silicon - the first BIM software to do so
  • Reality capture – including LIDAR point cloud scanning and photogrammetry
  • Cloud-based file processing and file sharing
  • Viewing 3D models in AR/VR
  • BIM collaboration with integrated cloud-based services

With an extensive suite of drawing, illustration, and rendering tools, Vectorworks Architect allows the production of remarkable line drawings and stunning 3D presentations. It even facilitates immersive presentation experiences with cutting-edge technology like virtual and augmented reality and rendered panoramas.

Vectorworks is part of the Nemetschek Group, a forerunner of digital transformation in the AEC/O industry, and covers the entire life cycle of construction and infrastructure projects.
