The <strong>analysis</strong> <strong>of</strong> sufficiency <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> CAAD s<strong>of</strong>tware packages show that ‘ease <strong>of</strong> use’,<br />
‘3D modeling’ and ‘rendering’ features are <strong>the</strong> important criteria that affect <strong>the</strong><br />
employment <strong>of</strong> that s<strong>of</strong>tware in project development phase (Table 3.14).<br />
Table 3.14 Reasons for utilizing a specific CAAD s<strong>of</strong>tware package in project<br />
development phase<br />

The following Table 3.15 summarizes <strong>the</strong> reasons causing <strong>the</strong> discontent for s<strong>of</strong>tware<br />
used in <strong>interior</strong> architectural project development phase. Although AutoCAD is <strong>the</strong><br />
most used s<strong>of</strong>tware in this phase, <strong>the</strong> disadvantages include having a long processing<br />
time and lacking some features in 3D modeling and rendering. On <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r hand,<br />
one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> least utilized s<strong>of</strong>tware, Photoshop is found insufficient for both 3D<br />
modeling and rendering and also in providing detailed and technically sound<br />
drawings.<br />
