OPEN BIM helps the development of this gigantic mixed use project in Helsinki, Finland. Tripla will be a bold, three-block urban entity connecting East and West Pasila, which had been separated by an old railway yard. The overall design will comprise offices, a shopping mall and congress center, housing, a hotel, a multi-purpose arena and public transportation terminal. The development is committed to continuing the sustainable expansion of the Helsinki city center, while creating a new, diverse backdrop for Helsinki urban life.

Located in Hong Kong, the architects at Enzyme used Archicad to design a unique residence in Java, Indonesia starting with the concept phase. According to the architects, using a design process that involves BIM achieves the best result with a better use of time and resources in a much more accurate way.
