Dear Talkers,

Here is a nice example for the creative use of ArchiCAD 12’s Curtain Wall tool from James Bowers of Bermello, Ajamil and Partners, Miami, FL. If you have similar examples, please post it in this thread. We would be happy to feature some of the best on graphisoft.com.

Gergely,
Any news on the curtain wall training guide?
Yet another 2 weeks have slipped by and I would really like to see it in action.

Hardly an impressive architectural achievement, but I made my name from the curtain wall tool while playing around with it some more.

I can hear the Graphisoft Designers cringing already.

I so clever.

Cheers,
