Lloyd Bussio on Transitioning to BlenderBIM: An Architect's Perspective
Lloyd Bussio, also known as the  @IfcArchitect is a registered professional architect operating out of Johannesburg, South Africa, and is known for his extensive use of BlenderBIM from his YouTube channel which exploded recently.
Lloyd shares his journey of using BlenderBIM since its inception in 2019. He explains how he found the software to be a powerful tool for his architectural projects, allowing him to move away from using Revit and AutoCAD. He mentions that he hasn't touched Revit or AutoCAD since October 2022 and is now doing everything with BlenderBIM.
Lloyd discusses the advantages of BlenderBIM, emphasizing its flexibility and the control it offers to users. He also talks about the importance of 2D drawings in his work, explaining that while some countries like Norway are moving away from requiring 2D drawings, in many places, including South Africa, they are still a crucial part of architectural projects.
He also shares his thoughts on the rapid development and improvements in BlenderBIM, with Lloyd expressing his admiration for the work of Dion Moult (the lead developer of BlenderBIM) and other contributors. He shares his belief that BlenderBIM is future-proof, offering a way to work in a format that will remain relevant and accessible.
Towards the end of the discussion, Lloyd talks about his efforts to encourage others to use BlenderBIM. He believes that with a week of learning Blender and BlenderBIM, professionals with previous experience in the field can start using it for small projects. He emphasizes that BlenderBIM is not just for architects but can also be beneficial for engineers, planners, and other professionals in the industry.
