An open-source toolkit for developing digital platforms in the built environment. With IfcOpenShell, you can read, write, and modify Building Information Models (BIM) using the IFC standard — a versatile and open digital language spanning the entire lifecycle of buildings, from design to construction and beyond.
Now including Bonsai, a Blender-based 3D editor to create and edit multidisciplinary information within IFC models.
The built environment is a major contributor to emissions, making sustainability in design, construction, and operations an area we can work on with data-driven decisions unlocked by open source tools.
CAD/BIM has long faced lock-in by the proprietary nature of traditional tools. We aim to change that.
