Design Technology

As a technology driven design firm, Design Technology is the backbone of IBI. We are driving the industry forward with the use of the latest systems and tools focused on a clearer vision of the future.

Building Information Modeling (BIM)

Create a “digital twin” of your project with BIM. At the design stage, we can generate a data-rich 3D model to achieve your project deliverables. When continued throughout the lifecycle of the project, this becomes a virtual representation of the physical assets they represent.

Learn more about BIM

Dramatically speed up the design process by leveraging the processing power of a computer. Parametric design uses algorithmic thinking to manipulate data-driven design solutions allowing our team to iterate through potential designs, precisely and efficiently.

Learn more about Parametric & Computational Design

It’s never been easier to visualize your next project. Our in-house visualization services help clients – and end users – better understand your project by creating:

  • Immersive virtual reality and augmented reality experiences
  • Hyper realistic animations and renderings
  • Physical models created using 3D printing and laser cutting, produced in our dedicated model shop

Spatial Intelligence

Geospatial tools are an intrinsic part of everything we do. By allowing us to view and interpret the environment in all its dimensions, they enable us to create authentic design solutions that are genuinely context sensitive.

Design is concerned with how things work, how they are controlled, and the nature of interaction between people and technology. When done well the results are brilliant, pleasurable buildings.
