Domus.Cad
Domus.Cad is a BIM program for architectural 3D design which allows you to face 3D design with the same simplicity as a traditional 2D design, and with the same simplicity allows you not only to design but to plan an entire project directly on your computer. It is a program with exclusive characteristics that has nothing to fear from any other 3D architectural design program on the market. Domus.Cad is the right CAD for architects and civil engineers. You can immediately begin to create three-dimensional elements without needing to start from a two-dimensional plan. Elements such as walls, floors, roofs, and stairs are created from the onset in their full three-dimensional form. Watch the 3D model change in real time as you design in plan. Domus.Cad’s strong 3D capabilities are matched by its equally impressive array of 2D CAD tools. This makes it just as easy to produce a full set of presentation and construction documents as it is to create the architectural model itself.

Architecture Helper
Architecture Helper is a platform for analyzing and exploring various architectural styles and influences through user-submitted photographs. The service provides instant architectural analysis for user submitted building images, and provides a library of real building analyses which users can explore. As users analyze various homes and buildings, they receive insights and analytics into their personal building library and their favorite styles and influences exhibited in them.
Users can also mix and match different architectural elements to generate new designs. Users can easily pick different attributes and elements of architecture to generate entirely new styles and to visualize the combination of different influences and draw inspiration.
The app aims to serve architecture students, hobbyists, and enthusiasts by offering a tool for discovery and creative expression in architecture.

Sweet Home 3D
Sweet Home 3D is a free interior design application that helps you draw the plan of your house, arrange furniture on it and visit the results in 3D. Insert doors and windows in walls by dragging them in the plan, and let Sweet Home 3D compute their holes in walls. Add furniture to the plan from a searchable and extensible catalog organized by categories such as kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom. Change color, texture, size, thickness, location and orientation of furniture, walls, floors and ceilings. While designing the home in 2D, simultaneously view it in 3D from an aerial point of view, or navigate into it from a virtual visitor point of view. Create photorealistic images and videos with the ability to customize lights and control sunlight effect according to the time of day and geographic location. Extend the features of Sweet Home 3D with plug-ins programmed in Java, or by developing a derived version based on its Model View Controller architecture.

VisionREZ
Revit is the most common BIM platform in the market today. In Revit, elements - such as doors, windows, and walls - are designed in 3D and incorporate data attributes. Because elements in Revit are intelligent, parametric and related to each other within the 3D model, changes made to one element automatically update all related model elements, schedules, views, and sheets. For a residential designer using Vision REZ for Revit, this means their changes are made all at once, and are automatically pushed through to CD’s, renderings, and quantity takeoffs, saving them valuable time. VisionREZ allows you to model designs with precision, optimize performance, and collaborate more effectively. VisionREZ is a residential Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology that allows for the sharing of all information related to a project to be contained in a single and accessible model. VisionREZ automates design tasks and integrates information so it can be utilized across functions.
