ui4anv | architecture_train | 0.94 | Architecture Software for Beginner and Future Architects **I am a beginner first year architecture student and I am currently really frustrated, trying to decide on which architecture software I should choose to learn in order to aid my future career, there are so many and I am quite lost. If there are any experts in this field that would not mind sharing their experience, I would be truly grateful. If you happen to also know the strengths and differences of each one that would also help a lot. What I am looking for is software for the full workflow:** * *Plan / Elevation / Section Drawings* * *3D Modelling* * *Rendering / Visualisation* * *VR Compatability* **Thank you for your time!** https://preview.redd.it/ih06jix61gx81.jpg?width=564&format=pjpg&auto=webp&v=enabled&s=5560d496fde0186e82ce2760cf0a85f0405f6ae1 | i7a6gg6 | i7aevll | 1,651,666,200 | 1,651,670,484 | 1 | 3 | BricsCad, Twinmotion | During school years, it’s good to focus on the end goal: getting comfortable producing consistent output that meet’s your class requirements. Whether you achieve that on Archicad, Rhino or Revit should not matter at all. Check out this teacher’s vision. His method protects you from mind blocks during design by showing you how to see past any particular software features. By the way: you forgot to mention 3D printing and scanning. He’ll help you get comfortable using those throughout your production time! 3DJony - Skills for Architects | 0 | 4,284 | 3 | ||

Really versatile and the “command” based workflow is super fast. It’s also easy to use when making something for 3d print, CNC machines, laser cutters and what have you | A lot of the software for architecture is extremely expensive even for non commercial use, but I guess you could download trial versions and see where they take you. If you want something that ticks most of these boxes, a combination of Revit and Enscape is a good starting point (they work together, not sure about VR though). Revit or ArchiCAD and 3Ds max would tick all boxes for sure. Revit and ArchiCAD are pretty common where I am. I think if you can wrangle 3Ds Max you’ll definitely do well with renders/ vis/ VR. But for just beginning and getting a feel for things I can recommend SketchUp. It’s surprising how far it can get you, and not too expensive. Not the best looking renders but good starting point. | 1 | 7,931 | 1.5 | ||

I use a mix of Acad, revit, sketchup, blender, Adobe suite, hand drawing/sketching, vray and escape for various pieces of project work. It really helps from an employment sense to have a well rounded knowledge of various softwares and not hedging your bets that the company you've applied for uses the same software you know. If I were back in 1st year and had to choose a limited workflow, I would definitely focus on BIM but with a lot of hand sketching. At pinup you can tell who has used revit and who hasn't. Anyone that doesn't know the software inside out always seems to produce blocky designs. Those that don't do a huge amount of design work in hand sketches and some Acad to finalise a design and then work it up in BIM. Even then they will take an output and render with vray and edit with photoshop. It's important to understand the investment in BIM modelling, the input time in modelling can be much larger than say sketchup but you can get more information from it. That being said it does look really good to employers who are migrating to BIM and need more knowledgeable staff. As useful as VR is, it can be fairly limiting unless you plan to maliciously model large areas of a model which can take up a huge amount of time when it may not be needed for plans/section/elevs. I have done this and I am not entirely sure it made any difference to final grading, but again can be useful to employers. I would recommend learning to 3d print too. Most unis have printers so you can just send them the output file, if not then there are various services and people online who will print for you. Its a great investment as you can often use your working 3d model to print from, saving you the time to make a model by hand. I don't think its worth mentioning any modelling software specifically, you will need to experiment to find the best one for your use case. However, you will almost certainly need to learn Adobe Photoshop and Indesign for editing and layouts. Affinity is a company that makes competing software at a cheaper price but it's fairly new and can be buggy from my experience. Again it's not widely used yet in industry so you may be limiting yourself on that front but its very similar in operation. Hope you have a chance to enjoy your time at Architecture school! I've been working from home for the past two years and the in person stuff is really the best part of the experience. | 0 | 9,862 | 2 | ||

Just from a CD POV: In school decades ago autocad and sometimes vector works where needed but a few programs stuck (and stick) to hand drafting. In my professional life autocad/rivit is a must if not for myself (personally I like to use vectorworks) I receive consultant drawings in these formats (auto desk) (it’s pretty much industry standard in the US and many EU firms I’ve talked to) I find it helpful to able to work with these. Or produce a compatible file for them to use. Illustration learn adobe (photoshop and illustrator at min) sketchup is helpful also. No mater what you’re using just understand the system… learn the program… it’s helpful to know if that program can easily do what you want it to; it also makes you more flexible if you have to jump from one system to another. That being said; what you use depends on the office you work in (or the office you make). At your point, ask upper class-persons what they find handy find out what the school labs have available. If a capable free drafting software is what your looking for… honestly you get what you pay for maybe you can ‘borrow’ a license while in school. | Your school usually assigns you what to buy and use. | 1 | 38,202 | 1,000 | ||

You should learn it if you don’t want to struggle your first job out of school (assuming you are US based). Rendering software is not quite as critical. There are several great options which operate relatively similarly. Ray trace programs are great to understand since they can produce higher quality renderings, but in my experience only dedicated visualizers use them while typical team members use real time programs for ease of use and ability to use the rendering program as a design tool. | 0 | 52,268 | 1,000 | ||

7vcws4 | architecture_train | 0.72 | [ask] Architects/Architecture students who are 25y/o or below, what are your aspirations as an architect and what are your personal aspirations? I'm trying to understand the 'millennials'. What is it that you are hoping to achieve in your lifetime both personally and professionally (Architecture). What are your goals and what drives/motivates you? And do you think your aspirations are different from the aspirations of your father's/mother's generation? If so how are they different? . | dtren7g | dtsu8fl | 1,517,815,936 | 1,517,880,872 | 3 | 5 | My goal is to live comfortable working at a stable firm, i want to start my own fish store on the side as i get older. I also want to focus on designing tiny homes since thats what the future is coming to nowadays | I know this is kinda late of a response, but I really wanted to answer. For starters, as stupid as it might sound, I think being an architect is really special because you connect art and utility into one field (not saying art isn’t utilized). The reason I want to become an architect after going to school for 3 years under a bio major is because I figured I wanted to design things that will ultimately help better my community. I grew up poor in the ugliest projects in town. The reality of owning a home was never in my horizons as a kid and despite the fact that generally i was a happy kid, it always bothered me that a lot of my friends in school lived in a house and I lived in an ugly yellow box. I had a lot of happy memories in that ugly yellow box, yet I always complained to my poor mother that I wanted a house because I wanted a cat and I wanted to bring friends over and not be embarrassed by the ugly yellow box. What a shitty kid. I grew up eventually and realized that even my friends houses were ugly lol, but the point behind that is someone like my mom never saw a sliver of a chance to move and create a better life in something outside of that ugly yellow box. That may seem somewhat superficial, but I never really felt any kind of inspiration in that place and I’m assuming everyone that lives there feels the same. Anyway, so the point I’m trying to make is I always wondered why if, given the materials they have, why not build them differently? Nicer? That’s what I want to do. I want to design and build facilities for people like me, trapped in an ugly yellow box. I want to design beautiful homes and make them accessible to everyone by using resources that better the environment. Maybe it’s a lot but it’s a dream. Also, I owe it to my mom to give her a house.

Not many can get licensed 2 years after getting their B.Arch. If you are curious about Millennials then you might want to ask about 35 and younger as that is the top end of the generation. A lot of my friends went on to practice and have obtained their license in the last 3 years or so. When I started in school, I just wanted to design something that hundreds of people would walk through and experience. By the end, I just wanted to be done, hehe. Really though I wanted a job to learn all the shit you can't in school and start down that path of hands on experience. I quickly learned that boutique firms are not the place for that, and corporate places were too boring for me. My parents learned a trade (pilot) just like I basically learned a trade (drafting). Both have enabled us to travel the world, with high levels of job satisfaction, and cool stories. In the end though, I am not a licensed architect and probably will never be. However, I wouldn't be where I am without that architecture education and drive. | 1 | 25,149 | 1.666667 | ||

I’ve heard the longer you take the less likely you’ll do it. Long term, my ambition is to get to work internationally, though I don’t know how I will achieve that. Most USA firms who have international offices seem to prefer hiring locals rather than sending Americans. And then international firms want to hire their own people or require me to already have citizenship to avoid sponsorship, which is understandable I suppose, but it is disheartening. My personal goals are even less defined. I’m not even sure I want to pursue anything like marriage or a family. When I think about my future I imagine myself as a successful, financially secure, single woman who travels frequently, with a well designed home, a group of professional friends, and my cat. But what I actually do now is sit at home on my phone or my computer. I only just moved to my new job so I haven’t managed to make friends yet and frankly don’t know how.

Currently my mindset is developing a larger range professionally and personally of my perspective. I’m so intrigued by the vast number of personalities and thoughts I’ve encountered since starting down this path. I’m relatively content and happy with my choices, but per my level and knowledge I feel like there’s so much room to grow. My parents are middle class. Dad has a GED, but taught himself and worked hard to make a good living. Mom does finance related work and has a master’s. They taught me be thankful and to not accept B level work when you have A level ability. My aspirations are my own and I think that doesn’t change from generation to generation. What you aspire will change, but I don’t think I aim higher or lower in comparison to anyone, just differently. I’d love to reverse this and see what the longer standing professionals have to say...maybe a 2.0 version thread. | 1 | 1,196 | 5 | ||

I’ve heard the longer you take the less likely you’ll do it. Long term, my ambition is to get to work internationally, though I don’t know how I will achieve that. Most USA firms who have international offices seem to prefer hiring locals rather than sending Americans. And then international firms want to hire their own people or require me to already have citizenship to avoid sponsorship, which is understandable I suppose, but it is disheartening. My personal goals are even less defined. I’m not even sure I want to pursue anything like marriage or a family. When I think about my future I imagine myself as a successful, financially secure, single woman who travels frequently, with a well designed home, a group of professional friends, and my cat. But what I actually do now is sit at home on my phone or my computer. I only just moved to my new job so I haven’t managed to make friends yet and frankly don’t know how. I’m generally a solitary person, because making friends requires more effort than I want to put in. | So it's only ten days until my twenty-sixth birthday so I guess I'm allowed to answer this. I'm writing from the view of a third year architecture student. The architect 'dream job' aspiration is stupid. Growing up, I was always interested in building things; building legos, building imaginary places in my school notebook, building things in computer games- so it's easy to say that I love building. However, the reality of building buildings isn't what I had imagined as a kid, but I found that the struggle of a project and it's highs and lows are worth doing for having a product of your design. So the dream isn't in the finished job of building, but my dream is found in the high's and low's of the process of building. | 0 | 35,062 | 2 | ||
7vcws4 | architecture_train | 0.72 | [ask] Architects/Architecture students who are 25y/o or below, what are your aspirations as an architect and what are your personal aspirations? I'm trying to understand the 'millennials'. What is it that you are hoping to achieve in your lifetime both personally and professionally (Architecture).

Currently my mindset is developing a larger range professionally and personally of my perspective. I’m so intrigued by the vast number of personalities and thoughts I’ve encountered since starting down this path. I’m relatively content and happy with my choices, but per my level and knowledge I feel like there’s so much room to grow. My parents are middle class. Dad has a GED, but taught himself and worked hard to make a good living. Mom does finance related work and has a master’s. They taught me be thankful and to not accept B level work when you have A level ability. My aspirations are my own and I think that doesn’t change from generation to generation. What you aspire will change, but I don’t think I aim higher or lower in comparison to anyone, just differently. I’d love to reverse this and see what the longer standing professionals have to say...maybe a 2.0 version thread. | So it's only ten days until my twenty-sixth birthday so I guess I'm allowed to answer this.

It's a freelance job mostly for BIM modelling and documentation. These two firms are very different in staff size and also in their deadlines pressure, with the bigger one being very intense with massive projects and constant meetings, submissions and so on, while the smaller one being very low-stress and focused on quality and detailing rather than that "deadline deadline deadline" mindset. Working as a freelancer is good but be mindful about having weeks or months without any calls for new projects. The same as having your own practice actually. You don't have that everyday stress for working directly to a manager, but you get a once in week / month stress about your financial situation. | If you are based in Europe, contact your union and see what can be done to help (or what you can do, which rules exists etc) , or which companies are better in that regard.

We are now in the 21st century, and most (as many commenters here have suggested) sold out for writing code and sitting behind screens all day turning inevitably into CAD Monkeys so far removed from the actual craft of learning to "design" and build things well it is crime to even call them architects as the word was once meant... For that reason, decades ago I abandoned the idea of ever being one and rather chose other careers that would support my interest and desire to build things, and later learned to expand my artistic talents into design. The birth of the "design-build" occupation has grown and is still growing as more and more firms embrace the tradition of actually being a full-service business to their clients where architects and builders work in concert... As for, "how do I search," I would suggest the old-fashioned way of writing letters (or emails) to those firms you admire and putting your name in their mouths and minds. I also suggest if you haven't already, actually learning all the skills to actually "build" what you...yourself...design as it once was and still is in some areas of the craft... | Just lower the salary range! | 0 | 9,743 | 3 | ||

We are now in the 21st century, and most (as many commenters here have suggested) sold out for writing code and sitting behind screens all day turning inevitably into CAD Monkeys so far removed from the actual craft of learning to "design" and build things well it is crime to even call them architects as the word was once meant... For that reason, decades ago I abandoned the idea of ever being one and rather chose other careers that would support my interest and desire to build things, and later learned to expand my artistic talents into design. The birth of the "design-build" occupation has grown and is still growing as more and more firms embrace the tradition of actually being a full-service business to their clients where architects and builders work in concert... As for, "how do I search," I would suggest the old-fashioned way of writing letters (or emails) to those firms you admire and putting your name in their mouths and minds. I also suggest if you haven't already, actually learning all the skills to actually "build" what you...yourself...design as it once was and still is in some areas of the craft... | Check out "archinect" - it has some decent listings | 0 | 6,564 | 2 | ||
