By 2007, I was introduced to BIM and started to prefer 3D modelling over 2D. And people really love the idea of a sustainable city. We’ve created our own guidelines and our own energy strategies and ideas we’ve implemented in the design. Today, we store all of our documents in the cloud. It's like living on a resort.

I think it’s pretty much established that taking the low bid, especially with a high number of bidders is rarely a good idea.

The idea of ‘automated clash detection’ on construction projects is so delightful that it attracts a large following and refuses to go away.
