Learn the Basic Order in Archicad: Project, Views, Layouts, and Publisher

Maintaining the basic order in Archicad is essential to ensure an efficient workflow from the start. In this video, we show you how to properly structure your projects in Archicad, managing views, layouts, and the publisher to avoid common mistakes and optimize your design.

When opening Archicad for the first time, it’s common for new users to feel overwhelmed by the interface and start modeling intuitively, using tools like “Wall,” “Slab,” “Door,” and “Window.” However, before starting the modeling process, it’s crucial to understand how to correctly structure and manage views and layouts.

In this video about maintaining basic order in Archicad, we explain how to:

Model and visualize basic elements in 2D and 3D.
Create sections and elevations to get different perspectives of the project.
Establish custom views with color and style settings that can be saved for future use without affecting the original model.

This approach not only makes the design process easier but also ensures that the final project is well-documented and ready to be published accurately. Additionally, we explain how to keep these views organized within the Archicad browser, clearly distinguishing between the project map and the view map.

For those who want to delve deeper into how to maintain order in Archicad and avoid common mistakes, this video is an excellent source of information.
