What is IDEA Architecture?

IDEA Architecture offers advanced 3D BIM modeling while providing an interface reminiscent of AutoCAD, enabling users to apply fundamental 2D commands such as polylines, entity snaps, and copy functions for the seamless creation of 3D models leveraging our vast library of 3D BIM objects. By simply sketching floor plans using the intuitive, parametric objects available in our AutoBLD menu, IDEA Architecture can automatically produce the corresponding 3D representation. With a quick double-click, users can easily access and modify the properties of any object, ensuring a smooth workflow. What sets IDEA Architecture apart from other BIM solutions is its use of DWG as the primary file format and its ability to convert 3D BIM objects into simple vectors that can be readily viewed and edited in AutoCAD®. This level of compatibility facilitates the sharing of both 2D and 3D files among a diverse array of CAD users. Additionally, our architectural software integrates all the features of 4MCAD, which serves as an effective alternative to AutoCAD®, providing a versatile and comprehensive design experience. By merging user-friendly commands with robust functionalities, IDEA Architecture efficiently simplifies the transition from 2D to 3D design, making it a valuable tool for architects and designers alike. Ultimately, this software empowers users to create innovative designs with greater efficiency and precision.

What is AutoCAD Architecture?

Enhance your architectural design and drafting efficiency with a cutting-edge toolset featuring more than 8,500 intelligent objects and styles that facilitate rapid renovation designs and document preparation. By utilizing elements that replicate real-world construction behavior, the accuracy of your projects can be significantly improved. Incorporate intricate components and sophisticated keynoting tools to optimize your workflow. The AutoCAD® 2022 software provides industry-tailored toolsets, a more integrated experience across various platforms and Autodesk applications, along with groundbreaking automations such as Count. You have the convenience of reviewing and giving feedback directly on a DWG file while keeping the original drawing intact. Share a controlled version of your drawings with team members and colleagues, allowing them to access the files from anywhere. Furthermore, you can detach drawing windows to view them simultaneously or spread across multiple monitors in the same AutoCAD environment. Experience enhanced performance, especially in plotting and 3D graphics, while easily exporting your CAD drawing sheets as PDFs to Autodesk Docs right from AutoCAD, promoting collaboration and efficiency. With these innovations, the design process not only becomes faster and more accurate but also more intuitive and user-friendly for all users involved. Embrace these advancements to take your architectural projects to new heights.
