ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN SOFTWARE
Autodesk software empowers you to bring your architectural designs to life.
Autodesk software empowers you to bring your architectural designs to life.
Architectural design is a discipline that blends technical and creative design to create buildings or structures that are not only safe and durable, but attractive and useful. Architects typically create architectural designs by understanding the space, what it is to be used for, and creating a functional structure for the space. Architectural design encompasses many phases of the design process from schematic design and design development to construction of the structure. Autodesk provides the technology to help with all aspects of the design and collaboration process.
Create, edit and annotate 2D architectural drawings (floor plans, landscaping layouts, etc.) more quickly and with greater precision.
Visualise your architectural design in 3D and create realistic models with materials, textures and automated tools.
Generate immersive photorealistic renderings to experience how architectural designs will perform in context for project reviews.
Use an intelligent 3D model-based design process to more efficiently plan, design, construct and manage buildings.

Many architects use AutoCAD as a 2D drawing tool for creating floor plans, elevations and sections. The architectural design software speeds up the drawing process (US site) with pre-built objects such as walls, doors and windows that behave like real-world objects.
Yes. Students and educators can get free one-year educational access to Autodesk products and services, renewable for as long as you remain eligible. Learn more (US site).
Autodesk Revit is professional BIM (Building Information Management) software (US site) that provides powerful tools for professionals, allowing them to visualise and co-ordinate every aspect of an architectural project (US site) in a very accurate way. In SketchUp, a 3D shape is just a 3D shape, but in Revit, every form represents a real-world object.
Architects design buildings using software focused more on exteriors, while interior designers (US site) focus on the inside spaces of buildings and include furniture, fixtures and other accessories to create the desired look and function.
