Remember my recent ArchiCAD Heroes post? In it, I mentioned my five favorite posters on the ArchiCAD-Talk Forum. If you haven’t taken the time to start searching out their posts and learning from their experience, that’s okay. In time I hope you will. One of those top five, Djordje Grujic, wrote an article for Architectural Evangelist. In the article he talks about the mind-set and decisions required to make the
Finith Jernigan’s latest book, Makers of the Environments recently won a Global Ebook Award. That’s great. Congratulations Finith! Very much deserved. Read more about the award here.

In his comment, James included a link to a blog post
A couple of weeks ago I wrote a post on groups in ArchiCAD. It has quickly become one of my most popular. If you haven’t read that post, you might want to start here. Well I’ve been thinking more about groups since then. And Link Ellis (one of my ArchiCAD heroes) offered some great additions to the list in this LinkedIn post.
