Enjoy the Freedom to Design the Way You Want

With the Vectorworks Designer software you’re not limited to a prescribed workflow, so you have the freedom to design in your own way. Incorporate your existing approach to design to make the best use of the skills you already have in-house. Collaborate seamlessly with other people and with other software applications.

Here are some of the flexible features Vectorworks offers:


Freeform Modeling

Whether you’re working in 2D or 3D, unified view mode lets you draft or model within a unified coordinate system. With an intuitive interface, you can design from any 3D view using modes in modeling tools that automatically infer working planes as you move your cursor, and enjoy the superior quality that allows you to manipulate your model with ease. More accurate object information and better snapping make drawing in 3D so easy. The SmartCursor™ helps you by showing hints, like the angle from the previous segment, as you draw. Plus, an advanced suite of solids and NURBS modeling tools allows you to create any shape and easily explore organic geometry. Push, pull, blend, twist, sculpt, deform, or punch holes.


Design Anything

Many CAD applications restrict your ability to design beyond a core discipline. Whether your specialty is architecture, landscaping, or entertainment design, the Vectorworks Designer program gives you the freedom to create without having to learn or use additional applications. Anything’s possible with the Vectorworks Designer 2012 software.


Efficient Workgroup Capabilities

Break up complex projects. Whether you’re a sole practitioner subbing out work or a large firm dividing work among different members of the team, Vectorworks Designer’s workgroup referencing provides a flexible way to split even the most complicated project into manageable pieces.
