Services

What we draw and model in Archicad

Your standards

Your template, not ours

Send your office template or a recent project you're happy with, and the work happens inside it. Your standards travel with the files, so nothing has to be redrawn when it comes back.

  • A template or a recent project. The quickest way to hand over your standards in one file.

  • Attributes. Layers and layer combinations, pens, fills, surfaces, building materials and composites.

  • Library and favorites. Your office library and favorites, so doors, windows and fixtures come from your own objects.

  • Layouts and title block. Your master layouts, title block and drawing numbering.

  • Publishing. Your publisher sets, or the PDF and DWG output you need, with your file naming.

  • Your Archicad version. Tell us which version your office runs; the file version is agreed in the quote.

No written standard? One project you like is enough. The setup is agreed in your quote and carries forward to every later job.

Files

Files that open in your office

Every package comes back as plotted PDF sheets plus the files you need, as agreed in your quote: the Archicad project in your version, DWG or DXF for consultants who draw in CAD, and IFC for consultants who work in other BIM software.

Archicad opens projects saved in earlier versions, but saves back only one version at a time, so we agree your version before work starts rather than converting at the end. Files move by Google Drive, Dropbox or WeTransfer link, and an NDA can come before any of them.

Drawing samples

How it works

From one project to checked files

  1. Send a brief

    Your template or a recent project, the markups, sketches or model, the output you need and your deadline. A link is fine, and an NDA can come first. Jovan replies within one business day.

  2. Get a free quote

    Sheets, model scope, formats, Archicad version and dates, in a fixed quote within 2 business days. Your quote sets the start date. Planning regular work? Start with the $950 pilot.

  3. Receive checked files

    Typically 5–10 business days per package. A senior lead checks every package before handover, and revisions and questions stay in one written record.

Before a first job, use our checklist for outsourcing CAD drafting. Most of it applies to a model as much as to a drawing.

Questions, answered

Do you work in our Archicad template?

Yes. Send your template or a recent project, with your library and title block. The setup is agreed in your quote and carries forward to later work, so the second job starts where the first one ended.

Which Archicad version do you deliver in?

Tell us the version your office runs. The file version is agreed in your quote, along with the PDF, DWG and IFC output you need, before any work starts.

Can you start from our PDF or DWG drawings?

Yes. Vector PDFs and DWGs are imported and rebuilt; scans are redrawn over the calibrated image, scaled to your written dimensions. See PDF to CAD conversion.

Can you model an existing house from a survey or a point cloud?

Yes, from data you supply: a measured survey with dimensioned sketches and photos, or a registered point cloud in E57 or XYZ, the two formats Archicad imports. We don't visit sites or carry out surveys.

What time zone do you work in?

Central European Time, one hour ahead of the UK. Our day covers the UK working day and the US East Coast morning. Australia's east coast is 8 to 10 hours ahead of us, depending on the season, so markups sent at the end of your day reach us as ours begins.

How is Archicad work priced?

Drawing sheets from $180, redline updates from $60 per sheet, and BIM models from $1,200 at LOD 200 or $1,500 at LOD 300. Conversions, hourly work and monthly seats get a free fixed quote within 2 business days.

Can we test you on one job first?

Yes. A first order can be as small as $500. Planning regular work? The $950 pilot covers a small scope of your own work plus setup in your template, and is credited in full toward later work on the terms under Prices.

Send your template and the next job.

Your template or a recent project, the markups, sketches or model, and your Archicad version. A link is fine.
