Hello, I am wondering has anybody created/ converted the KNOLL range of furniture for ArchiCAD?

I finally recveived my Knoll CD last week. The plan is to save the 3D bits as 3DS if they don't exist in that format already and then read them straight into AC9 format.

At this point am not sure as the parametrics of such objects. This could be criucial as I want a black Knoll sofa and my wife wants it in white.

Which format did you get it in?

None of course! If you got DWGs or DXFs, and if you do have AutoCAD, the best way would be to save it piece by piece, material wise, and then add parameters and combine everything in ArchiCAD.
