Africabim 3D Student Design Challenge 2014 The AfricaBIM Design Challenge is an annual student design competition that challenges architectural and interior design students in Africa.

The AfricaBIM Design Challenge invites individuals and student teams from all over Africa to submit their innovative & sustainable Building Information Modeling Designs according to the annual theme for judging. The competition provides aspiring post graduate and under graduate students in Africa a unique learning opportunity to build their technology knowledge and skills under the guidance of aca

demic experts. The theme -AfricaBIM - School of the future, aims to inculcate accurate values in the young talent using the right design solutions to make a better future.

Have you explored Autodesk Vasari as yet? Autodesk® Project Vasari is an easy-to-use, expressive design tool for creating building concepts. Vasari goes further, with integrated analysis for energy and carbon, providing design insight where the most important design decisions are made. And, when it’s time to move the design to production, simply bring your Vasari design data into the Autodesk® Revit® platform for BIM, ensuring clear ex*****on of design intent.

Look at this fascinating project from Australia. Is the school of the future modular and easily duplicated? In order to be successful at designing the school of the future we need to consider how teaching and learning will take place in the next 10 years. This fascinating article explores these concepts and also describes the MODUPOD from Austrialia. The MODUPOD school aims to be a futuristic and inspiring learning environment to create more aware students. The MODUPOD school fits easily into and is responsive to its environment.

A luxury home doesn’t always necessarily mean thousands of square footage, towering great rooms and gilded toilets. Take these homes for example: to begin building one of these epic houses, all you need is $2,000. That $2,000 will buy you a shipping container. What you do with that shipping containe…
