Architecture – Building Design – BIM
fast efficient creative building design at its best…
Designer Pro
is a highly automated building design software for budget conscious designers of traditionally constructed buildings. A great option when realistic rendering or detailed construction documents linked to the 3D model are not required. Available for Mac® OS/X® and Windows®.
SketchUp
is for rapid concept design and detailing in 3D. It’s a widely used application suited to a broad range of design disciplines and now with usable 2D documentation tools linked to the 3D model.
If you can’t afford the power and flexibility of ARCHLine.XP then this could be a viable alternative.
