I documented full houses in 3D ArchiCAD 20 years ago in our design studio, while she looked after our children. I designed and modelled iconic commercial buildings in Teamwork Architecture when we moved to a bigger town 15 years ago. Almost thirty years ago, I was first talking about computer modelling of buildings.

Skeptics will say, that was no BIM, just 3D, but the fact is that I used 3D for documenting full buildings from the first day I learned ArchiCAD (4.5), applied appropriate materials (meta data!) – and jumped on the first opportunity of doing 4D models when I came across, the then extremely buggy and highly temperamental Construction Simulation.
