Overview of Chief Architect Premier
For all aspects of residential and light commercial design. As you draw walls and place smart architectural objects like doors and windows, the program creates a 3D model, generates a Materials List, uses powerful building tools, and helps produce Construction Documents with Site Plans, Framing Plans, Section Details, and Elevations.
Chief Architect Premier’s powerful CAD software engine includes lines, polylines, splines, arcs, and solids to produce objects ranging from custom entry columns to deck ledger detail. Quickly manipulate objects with multiple copies, align, reflect, and replicate at specific intervals.
A CAD-to-Walls tool imports AutoCAD files and provides mapping for layers so you can quickly see the model in 3D. Draw custom CAD details, import them as DWG/DXF/PDF, or choose from over 500 CAD details in the premium SSA catalog to overlay your design.
Chief Architect uses smart design objects like cabinets to quickly and easily create various styles, shapes, and sizes. Chief Architect partners with specific manufacturers (cabinets, appliances, doors, windows, countertops, and flooring) so that styles, finishes, and other product-specific design details can be accurately drawn and rendered.
