Ashampoo^® 3­D CAD Architecture 14⁠ new!

From precise design to standards-compliant documentation

Ashampoo 3D CAD Architecture 14 takes your building design to a new professional level. The latest version delivers visibly cleaner elevation views, expands your capabilities with standards-oriented fire escape plans, and enhances your object catalog with hundreds of additional 3D models. At the same time, the program remains what it has always been: a powerful, intuitive CAD solution for precise floor plans, well-thought-out constructions, and realistic visualizations. Discover how Version 14 makes your planning clearer, more flexible, and more professional than ever.

Perfect elevations with optimized hidden line representation

Elevation views are only convincing when they are technically clean. Version 14 enhances the Hidden Line Optimization in Elevation Views by selectively removing unwanted dividing lines between stacked wall elements. The result is clearly structured, visually calm elevations with noticeably improved drawing quality. Especially in presentations or printed plans, this feature ensures a more professional appearance—without time-consuming manual post-processing.

Create fire escape plans directly within your CAD project

With the new Fire Escape Plan Plugin, you unlock an entirely new area of application. Based on your existing floor plans, you can generate standards-oriented escape and rescue plans including frames, symbols, legends, and color representations of rooms. An integrated wizard assists with scale, layout, and sheet setup, while a comprehensive 2D symbol catalog provides all required signage elements. This allows you to create professional fire escape plans directly from your project—efficiently, systematically, and practice-oriented.

Automatic symbol lists for improved documentation

Version 14 also expands the export functionality with Exporting a List of 2D Symbols. The structured output, including quantities and logical names, simplifies documentation, coordination, and data sharing. As usual, export is available in PDF, RTF, or Excel format. This adds transparency and supports the creation of professional project documentation.

Over 280 new 3D objects for even more realistic planning

The 3D object catalog has been expanded with more than 280 new models. Unlike earlier grouped elements, these objects can be scaled and individually customized in terms of materials and textures. This combines maximum flexibility with enhanced detail accuracy. The update also includes current solar modules and preconfigured PV assemblies for balcony power systems. The result: greater design freedom—from technical detailing to compelling visual presentation.
