Architecture Tech

BIM creates information-rich 3D models containing material specifications, cost data, and performance characteristics alongside geometry. Generative design AI explores thousands of layout options against constraints (program, circulation, daylighting, structure). Energy simulation predicts building performance before construction. VR visualization enables immersive design review with clients. AI code compliance checking validates designs against building regulations automatically.

BIM coordinates architecture, structure, and MEP systems in unified models. Generative design explores hundreds of layout options against program requirements. Energy simulation predicts building performance. VR walkthroughs give clients immersive design experiences. Code compliance checking validates designs against regulations.

The global architecture software market exceeds $5 billion. Autodesk dominates with 65%+ market share through Revit and AutoCAD. BIM mandates are expanding globally. The broader AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) software market exceeds $15 billion.
