Q:best architecture programme for mac pleas
Ooo I feel so sorry for all you architecture Mac users. Really. I acctually don’t know. I am a Windows guy and that works out great when choosing an architectural software tool.
Almost all the apps are made for Windows and if you are lucky enough, there will be a Mac version.
I’ve seen people use the Mac AutoCAD + some unknown 3D modeling software (even sometimes web based app) + Photoshop, but is a struggle.
Others put virtual engines on their Macs that enable Windows apps to run, or install “side by side” Windows OS.
ArchiCAD 15 has a Mac support now. You could go with that. It is a nice software.
You could use SketchUp, I’ve seen people do some great work with this app, but I’ve always found it confusing.
Also I’ve heard of VectorWorks, but never used it, so I can’t tell you anything.
I know that Rhino will be releasing a Mac version soon. And that will be very nice. And there were some rumors on Mac 3ds Max release, but nothing official.
It’s your choice.

Vector Works can be used to make really nice Construction Docs… I’m not sure why ARCH students get macs… the functionality isn’t there yet…AutoCad is glitchy
