Made by a home designer

Made in Smithfield, North Carolina.

ArcSmith is made by McGill & Co. Designs LLC, a residential design firm. It is the tool we wanted at our own desk: fast plans, clean sheets & clients who can see what we see.

Questions

Before you apply.

Who is ArcSmith for?
Residential design firms: home designers, drafting services and design-build teams, from one designer working alone to a whole studio.
What does it replace?
The hand-offs. Plans, 3D views, renders and client markups usually live in separate programs and long email threads. In ArcSmith they are one project that your firm and your client share.
Can my clients use it?
Yes. Clients can watch the design take shape, comment and approve in the same model, and client access is free.
When does the beta open?
Firms are invited from the beta applications as it grows. Apply, and we'll email you when it's your firm's turn.
What will it cost?
There will be plans for a solo designer, for small teams working live together, and for whole studios. Prices come later.
