Have you heard about Forma?

@@abcBIMdotCom Sorry, I gave you the wrong answer before. I meant option B, SketchUp. I'm learning Revit and I often feel very frustrated. I find your content very interesting.

I have been trained on Revit, Sketchup and AutoCAD in my degree program. Out of the three, I find that I can be the most creative much more easily in Sketchup. It is much more intuitive to use and I can design quickly and easily in 3D. I am curious about Chief Architect - what are your thoughts on that?

Those Revit dialogue boxes at the end cracked me up. Sometimes simple tasks like creating lines can be a hassle.

I use Archicad, and would like to try Rhino, but I HATE Revit!

Rhino is powerful with it's modeling capabilities, but architects are still stuck with Revit because of its documentation capabilities. Have you tried the Revit 2025?
