A conceptual estimate is the first cost model the owner will remember.

Unpacking the final promise of BIM 2.0

Cost belongs in conceptual design as an input the designer uses, and as a number the estimator can work with while the scheme is still cheap to change.

Arcol + Rhino: Stay in Rhino. Floor Plans, Metrics & Presentations Handled.

The Arcol Excel integration pushes square footages, unit counts, and program metrics from your project into a chosen Excel workbook.

Arcol now lets you start projects with custom geo-referenced site boundaries, custom terrain and surrounding context - creating one coordinate system before the first line is drawn.

Generative design tools produce options, not decisions. The real value lies in an environment where generated layouts can be iterated on with live cost, structural, and zoning feedback.

Thomas, our Head of Engineering reflects on Arcol Interlude. A week where we stopped our roadmap week to prototype, experiment, and learn.

Connected Constructible Design is Arcol's vision for building design. When construction intelligence is embedded in every design decision and agents operate alongside humans in one live model, the wall between design intent and construction reality disappears.

The software industry abandoned waterfall testing decades ago. Architecture should do the same by embedding continuous structural, cost, and compliance feedback into the design environment.
