Vectorworks Architect is the professional design software that lets you create incredible spaces all in one application. Built to showcase your skill and creativity, Vectorworks Architect offers all the design, rendering, presentation, documentation and collaboration tools you need to effectively communicate your design ideas. With superior 2D graphics, dynamic data-driven 3D modeling and visualization tools as well as robust reporting capabilities, Vectorworks Architect combines absolute creative expression with maximum efficiency.
Hybrid Workflows
A hybrid 2D/3D environment means drawing changes automatically reflect in the 3D model and vice versa. Everything is connected, even documentation — no need to worry about making the same change in multiple places.
Communicate and Collaborate
A built-in rendering engine and connections to leading rendering platforms like Twinmotion, Enscape, and Lumion give users the freedom to render how they want. With a single click, users can share visions thanks to the Vectorworks cloud. Immersive presentations can be created directly in the cloud with 360-degree panoramas and walkthrough animations.
This software is built on the idea that collaboration is fundamental to the design process. It has the most import/export capabilities available — a collaboration with designers is possible using AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, and much more. Even sketches from other drawing programs are possible to import to get your project started.
