About IDEA Architecture

IDEA Architecture is architectural design software built on 3D building information modelling. Its interface resembles AutoCAD, which is meant to ease the move for drafters used to that style of working.

What IDEA Architecture does

  • 3D BIM modelling: building models created in three dimensions.
  • 2D architectural design: traditional drawing alongside the model.
  • Rendering and animation: images and walkthroughs from the model.
  • 4D scheduling: adds the construction timeline to the model.
  • 5D costing: links the model to cost estimation.

Clients

Architects and design practices looking for a BIM tool positioned as an alternative to Revit or ArchiCAD.

Key facts

  • File compatibility: DWG and IFC
  • Interface: similar in feel to AutoCAD
