Ultimately, PCLD’s plan specified sustainable design elements through the use of Vectorworks Landmark design software. Recently, PCLD was called upon by the Council in Newhall, California, to re-envision the city’s main corridor, which was in decline due to the expansive Los Angeles suburbs. (PCLD) has relied on Vectorworks for about the last five years. Credit: The Office of James Burnett Also, Pacific Coast Land Design, Inc. We have users doing GIS work, urban design, site information modeling, and land planning with Vectorworks software.

We hear that people think our software is only made for small projects, which is not true-it’s really made for both small and large projects. With that said, a majority of users are practitioners at firms with 20 or fewer people focused on landscape architecture, design/build, land development and planning, garden design, the landscape contractor, and even a small number of civil engineering firms. On the customer level, there is a good mix from private practices to government and even schools. Besides English, Vectorworks products are currently available in Chinese, Japanese, German, French, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Norwegian. LAN:Is there a particular sector that has embraced Vectorworks? Why? Vectorworks: Vectorworks products are put to work in more than 85 countries in 10 languages. Gilbey leads a hands-on workshop during a continuing education session for professionals and students at the University of Georgia this past October. The biggest advantage to using Vectorworks is the integrated workflow, which merges 2D and 3D, smart objects, built-in rendering capabilities, and freeform modeling. For example, Vectorworks allows landscape architects to model with smart objects, which directly relate to the design of the project and include hardscapes, landscape areas, planting design, walls, and more.
LAN: What are the primary advantages to using Vectorworks? Why should landscape architects choose your software over your competitors? Vectorworks:Most of our users choose our industry-specific Vectorworks Landmark product because the software runs more intuitively compared to other software. In 2000-2001, we started to introduce industry-focused products, and it’s been that way ever since. In the late 1990s, we were acquired by our parent company, the Nemetschek Group of Munich, Germany. When architects started using CAD technologies, landscape architects were pulled in. The initial intention was to offer a 3D CAD solution and a specific market wasn’t targeted, but the early adopters were architects, and we later added 2D capabilities. How was the company started? Was it originally developed for landscape architects? Vectorworks: The software was called MiniCad when the company started in 1985. (The responses have been edited for brevity and clarity.) Interview with Vectorworks Landscape Architects Network (LAN) had the opportunity to interview Eric Gilbey, PLA ASLA, landscape architect specialist from Vectorworks, at the ASLA Annual Meeting & EXPO 2015 in Chicago.
