Whenever I find a great source with architectural designs or assets that can benefit our readers, I try to share them here in Blender 3D Architect. The only times when such a resource doesn’t appear here on the site are when the material is not free to use and requires a license or paid content. […]
A powerful way of developing architectural projects is with BIM tools and resources, which can save you a lot of time and streamline design decisions based on data. There are lots of BIM options in the market, but they all share the same flaw. The use of proprietary data formats. Once you start working with […]
If you have experience with CAD softwares and decides to migrate to Blender, which is, by the way, a wise move, you will miss a few editing options during a modeling project. In most CAD design apps, a simple task is to create divisions based on line intersections. You get two crossing lines, and you […]
After a long period of planning and preparation, we are proud to announce that our first updated workshop for Blender is already available. If you keep track of our content for some time, you know that we had a small portfolio of training material in the past. After a while, that material became outdated, and […]
As the development of more IFC-based solutions for Blender advances, we might soon start to see engineers looking to Blender as a way to work on their projects. A quick example of that appeared on Bruno Postle Twitter account with a practical example of IfcStructuralAnalysisModel. It uses the incredible Homemaker Add-on. From Blender, you can […]
A significant amount of people think about Blender as a 3D modeler and platform to render realistic images to visualize your designs. It can help a lot in this regard, but that is only part of its role in architecture. With Add-pons like BlenderBIM, you can expand Blender and include authoring and document BIM data. […]
Even with tools such as BlenderBIM that allow us to organize an entire project using BIM standards and export that as an IFC file, we could benefit a lot from a workflow that also includes FreeCAD. Since it has a native BIM workbench and can do many things that Blender still can’t, like easily generate […]
