Vectorworks Architect

Vectorworks Architect is design software for architects that combines sketching, drafting and modelling in one BIM workflow. The maker presents it as a tool that can carry a project from start to finish, or help at any single stage, rather than covering only one task. It is listed under architecture software.

What Vectorworks Architect offers

• Conceptual design — early sketching and form exploration.
• BIM modelling — fully coordinated building information models.
• Construction documents — drawings and documentation produced from the same project.
• Flexible use — it can be picked up partway through a project as well as at the start.

Who it works with

Architects and design practices that want to keep concept, model and documentation work in a single application. The Nemetschek Group site linked to this listing says the group supports open industry standards and OPEN BIM, which allows customers to choose the tools that suit them.
