The history of Graphisoft

ARCHICAD is architectural BIM/CAD software for macOS and Windows, developed by the Hungarian company Graphisoft. It provides digital tools for the aesthetic and technical aspects of architectural work and is widely used by practices in Kosovo.

The accompanying video, presented by Graphisoft’s official representatives in Kosovo, explores the company’s origins. Who founded Graphisoft, and when? How did it obtain powerful, expensive computers in the 1980s to develop ARCHICAD? Why is there a statue of Steve Jobs beside Graphisoft’s headquarters in Hungary? And how did Apple help ARCHICAD reach a global market?
