Yorik Van Havre
This was a nice historical presentation of the progress in architectural representations from the point of view of architects, starting with plans drawn on paper, to 2D plans created digitally, then progressing to Building Information Modeling. BIM has to do not only with creating drawings which might be used for construction, but also with creating 3D representations of the exterior and interior of buildings, as well as a large amount of information about various construction materials and methods to be used. Yorik is involved with the continued development of aspects of FreeCAD which would be of use to architects, using open formats for saving the work.
