#BlenderBIM

Seeking documented cases of Bonsai as primary BIM tool in commercial projects. Interested in:

Real commercial implementations (not test cases)
Projects with openBIM requirements
Performance in 2D architectural deliverables

Looking beyond webinars/LinkedIn to understand practical day-to-day documentation vs traditional BIM tools. Has anyone successfully transitioned to Bonsai in commercial practice? πŸ™πŸ» #openSource #IFC #bonsaiBIM #bonsai #blenderBIM

The world would be a better place with more open and transparent #software. That’s why we want to move towards using more #opensource software in our design workflows. But we need help! If you know #BlenderBIM, #sverchok and/or #freecad reach out to us if you’re interested.

Finally is ready the extension for #BIM in #Blender, now #Bonsai aka #BlenderBIM is compatible with latest #Blender 4.2.1 LTS version and is awesome, I was waiting it for a while to do some test not related to classic architetture but with boat design. today I will try to make some experiments with it :) #b3d #blender3d https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/bonsai/
