The Most Surreal Projects Designed in ArchiCAD...

Anonymous — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 12:42:53 GMT

Hi,

I've just found a very interesting page showcasing surreal designs, created in ArchiCAD (and other programs)

Surreal Designs

Not sure if this would ever happen, but would Graphisoft every show the authors plans etc. or even the project file for other people to explore? i.e would you assume that those projects were created with a beta release of ArchiCAD 15 as it seems almost impossible for some of them to be designed without the shell tool.

Personally, I use ArchiCAD for quite a lot of 'free-form' work and would be very interested in getting a copy of these projects! or even a description of how they were made.

I think for this project, the 15 th version is not required. This surrealism can be seen in any version.

The rendering was most likely done in another program (Facebook feed states that they use ArchiCAd 3Ds etc.)

I guess it's only the construction that I though would require ArchiCAD 15... After using it for 3 years I know how challenging these sort of forms are, but the results looks so good and so neat in the contestants' protects.

yes or a bit of fancy GDL scripting...

Perhaps you did not correctly understood me. I showed the image of one of competitive projects. Of course, it was the author's banter.
