Columbia, MD (June 4, 2015)—Architosh, the leading online magazine dedicated to CAD and 3D professionals and students worldwide, announced the recipients of its fourth annual "BEST of SHOW" awards from the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Convention 2015 in Atlanta, Georgia, and global design software developer Nemetschek Vectorworks, Inc. received two honors. Vectorworks® Designer 2015 was the sole winner in the Desktop category, while Vectorworks® Nomad 3.0 was one of three winners in the Mobile category. As a complete BIM modeling tool, Vectorworks Designer 2015 software "packs a big punch in the area of visualization and rendering options. And Vectorworks 2015 gave an official ‘thumbs up’ for 4K displays, something its peers have not yet done," said Anthony Frausto-Robledo, AIA, LEED AP, editor-in-chief of Architosh.com. Architosh awards the Desktop category honor to programs that promote cross-platform excellence, which means they are not only compatible on both Mac and Windows operating systems but also take advantage of the underlying operating systems in specific ways. With a perfect score at the product review level, Vectorworks Designer 2015 secured the win due to its industry-leading landscape architecture tools and new site modeling capabilities, as well as its competitive pricing model.
