VisualARQ Review
What is VisualARQ?
VisualARQ is a flexible architectural modeling plugin for Rhinoceros, allowing you to design, document, and visualize architectural projects within the BIM (Building Information Modeling) environment. Its native integration with Grasshopper and IFC compatibility make it a highly attractive tool for firms working with parametric design. VisualARQ does not operate as a standalone software, and Rhinoceros (version 7 or 8) is an essential requirement for its use.
