CHIEF PLATEAU ESTATES

CHIEF ARCHITECT CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS

Chief Plateau Estates Was Designed Entirely in Chief Architect. The Floor Plan Was Provided and the Drawing Process Started from Scratch to Learn This BIM Tool Of Chief Architect. The Drawing Started with Drawing the Walls Except For Moving Load-Bearing Walls. The Program Divides the Process into Two, A 2D Model and A 3D Model Where Both Screens Can Be Seen Simultaneously Working With The Scalable Items On One Side While Being Able To See The Space In 3D To Make Visible Changes To The Space. Furniture, Lighting, Fixtures, And Accessories Were Also Added to Enhance the Look. The Project Included A 2D Site Plan and Landscape, A Floor Plan, A Furniture Plan, A Mechanical Plan, And A Kitchen and Bath Plan. The 3D Model Helped Create the Elevations, Cross Sections, And 3D Renderings.

Chief Architect Allows for A Seamless Transition Between 2D And 3D Models. When Working in Either 2D Or 3D Models, The Program Makes It Easy to Make Automatic Alterations to The Floor Plan, Walls, Cabinets, Light Fixtures, Etc. This In Turn Allows the Design to Be Updated Immediately in The Floor Plan as Well as In the Elevation. BIM Tools Like Chief Architect Make Detailed Drawings Easier and More Efficient Which in Turn Saves the Designer Time and The Client More Expenses.
