This session will be focused on developing basic understanding of how Vectorworks functions and how to get up and running on the right track.


This will also be a great opportunity to network with your peers in the industry and get insights on their journey and experiences.

Outline:

  • Exploring the user interface. 

  • Discovering drawing techniques - creating basic shapes.

  • Understanding file organisation with classes and layers.

  • Using resources to build out a project. 

  • Testing techniques for creating basic 3D modelling shapes. 

  • Documenting the project progress, using viewports and sheet layers.
