BIM software for architects, built for the Nordics

You design buildings people want to live in. You also build the model everyone after you depends on, and too much of it gets lost between phases and handovers.

Archicad and the tools around it keep that information intact, from the first sketch to the day the building opens.

60% of Nordic architectural firms use Archicad. We are the exclusive Archicad partner across Finland, Norway, and Sweden.

What architectural firms are up against

Every architectural practice runs into the same friction. Here is where the working day gets harder than it should.

Design time and efficiency

Drawings, schedules, and visuals all have to stay in sync. When they live in separate tools, every change costs you twice and the deadline does not move.

Meeting BIM requirements and standards

Clients and public projects ask more of your model every year. Delivering to the local standard, with the right information in the right place, is real work on top of the design.

Coordination and handovers

Information gets lost between phases and between disciplines. What you carefully modelled rarely arrives intact at the next desk, so someone rebuilds it.

Cost and staying competitive

Tighter fees and faster timelines leave no room for rework. The practices that stay profitable are the ones that work without friction from sketch to delivery.

Where BIM fits in an architect's workflow

Good BIM is not about the software. It is about decisions that hold up: a model your whole team can build on and information that survives every handover.

Here is how that works in practice, from the first line to the finished building.

From sketch to a model others can reuse

Archicad was built by architects, for architects. That shows in how it moves from a first idea to a finished model, in one tool, without starting over at each phase.

Start where the idea starts. Work in 2D and 3D at the same time, test massing and space early, and keep everything in the same model you will carry through to construction documents. Nothing gets thrown away when the project moves to the next stage.

Quality, compliance, and reuse

A model is only as good as what survives delivery. The second half of the job is checking your work, sharing it cleanly and keeping it useful long after handover.

Open your IFC the way you would proof a PDF before sending it. With Solibri you set your own rules and catch clashes, missing data and geometry errors before they reach anyone else. The Norwegian and Swedish adaptations come ready with local rule sets, so you check against the right standard from day one.
