Algorithmic Design & Virtual Reality with ARCHICAD

The future of design is here. Technology is driving the firms of tomorrow. If you feel like you are stuck between two worlds, want to learn or network with thought leaders from across the industry, we invite you to join us at The Center for Architecture for a pair of provocative presentations.

Design Paradigm Shift: Visual Parametrics and their Application to BIM | Presented by Alexander Hughes, KURV Architecture
Virtual Reality: From Concept to Jobsite with BIMx | Presented by Joe Vance, Joseph Vance Architects

Leave the strain of an inefficient workflow behind.  Our presenters will discuss how they are leveraging software and technology to push the limits of BIM within an ARCHICAD workflow.
Hear Alex Hughes (recently featured in the original web series, ByDesign) discuss how he uses parametric algorithms in Grasshopper to create BIM in ARCHICAD.  These powerful tools give KURV and its clients an advantage by allowing for dynamic control of the mathematical groundwork of any building form.

Longtime ARCHICAD user, Joe Vance will discuss how he uses BIMx, a native mobile application and virtual reality tool for ARCHICAD.  From conceptual massing studies in his office to jobsite visits, Joe will demonstrate how BIMx helps inform design, ease communication and streamline coordination.
