Can BIM technology accommodate the unique demands of an experienced landscape architect?
Plants define our designs. They're living architectural elements that embody each landscape architect's unique vision and creative signature. Yet when it comes to upgrading design technology, many designers fear losing this personal touch to rigid digital processes.
In this session, we'll break down different planting design methods and demonstrate BIM tools and workflows commonly used in softscape modeling. You'll see how, with the right tools, BIM can enhance your process, from conceptual design through plant data management, to detailed documentation and accurate scheduling.
Available BIM tools can significantly reduce documentation time while improving accuracy and preserving your unique design style.
This learning lab is ideal for landscape architects, designers, and firm principals seeking to modernize their practices and enhance project efficiency. No prior BIM experience required.
Learning Outcomes:
Understand how BIM's core principles naturally align with the complex, data-rich nature of softscape design, making it the perfect platform for managing living architectural elements.
Learn which specific tools work best for different tasks—from initial schematic design concepts through detailed construction documentation and plant scheduling.
Explore practical methods for adapting BIM processes to produce results that reflect your unique aesthetic approach while meeting local professional requirements.
Understand how BIM-based planting design can benefit your practice.
