The Bricsys Stay Connect ed Student Competition invites you to design your own innovative solution to help people stay in touch, without touch. This is driving new innovations and behaviors such as telepresence robots that make Skype calls more interactive, plastic sheeting through so you can hug your grandma and virtual Zoom drinks. Recent developments have meant that it’s not always possible to see people face to face, and when we do, social distanc ing rules must be respected. First, second and third place will be announced on April 30, 2021. The competition closes at 11pm (UTC) on April 16, 2021.

Here at Bricsys, we’re sure he’ll be a great asset to any architectural studio. He’s clearly a very motived, with high attention to detail. What’s next?Īfter graduation Jasper hopes to gain an internship in an architectural firm, before starting his own firm. By using BricsCAD BIM it enabled us to create a lot of drawings in just a few clicks.
There were also 2 other students who were new to the software and they could pick it up really quickly. When working on another group project with a fellow interns at Bricsys: Pauline Mestdagh and Koen Mersy he was able to work quickly and effectively to generate weekly progress drawings optimizing the time the team would spend on working on the design. Right: The same image generated in BricsCAD automatically, including materials and textures.
He also explained that when he made the model he was able to better visualize his design and change some of the details to better fit the surroundings. I got the same image, but with materials and with textures in just 5 minutes.
It’s very time-consuming and delivers a good drawing, but when you look at BricsCAD BIM, you create your model, you can create a section in two clicks, then you can choose your visual style and render what you want. When he first designed his building he created everything in 2D. He told me that BricsCAD helps with his stress levels as he could generate section views much faster. He told me that he thought the materials were the most successful part of the design. It also allowed him to give the front facade a stepped appearance to smooth the transition between the buildings.
Jasper created a series of levels and terraces that allowed extra light to enter the building, even on the north side. The plot of the land was also far from ideal, it was walled either side by buildings of differing heights and was extremely narrow. The shop on the ground floor was designed as a separate, self-contained area, so as not to interfere with the upper living levels. There were many problems that needed solving through the design. It used to be a thriving shopping street but has since fallen into disrepair. The project was designed to revitalize street in Ghent: The Begijnengracht. He also presented his work to his peers at the Bricsys Student BIM event earlier this year. Which was used as the inspiration for the 2D 3D BIM series. One of the most interesting projects that Jasper has worked on with BricsCAD BIM is the Begijnengracht. Rendered BIM model, built with BricsCAD What have you made with BricsCAD? He’s been working for Bricsys for 2 years and working with BricsCAD since the second year of his bachelor’s degree. Jasper is pursuing his childhood dream of becoming an architect and is about to go into his final year of his master’s degree studying engineering and architecture at the University of Ghent.
