Description: Based on an idea from NYC architecture firm The UP Studio, “Build the Vote” is a unique public service project from GRAPHISOFT that uses the voice and talent of architects to remind their colleagues — and all citizens — of the importance of voting in the 2020 US general election. Accepting the challenge with The UP Studio were Laney LA of Los Angeles, Landon Bone Baker of Chicago, and CORE architecture + design of Washington DC. Each firm fully designed their 3D model in Archicad, and delivered them to an in-house GRAPHISOFT team for final assembly in Archicad and Epic’s Twinmotion platform, allowing the tour to also be enjoyed as a VR experience. To deliver the message, the firms selected a letter in the word “Vote” and turned their letter shape into an original 3D building that incorporates an issue of societal importance at stake in the election. The 3D models were then brought together in an immersive visual tour that ends with a view from above, revealing the buildings side-by-side to spell the word “VOTE." graphisoft.com/us/buildthevote
