Caddie helps John Bradley Associates on listed building planning consent

Caddie.jpg

The Lawns Residential Care home started life as the Rectory to the adjacent St Laurence Church. It is thought that the Rectory was design by the eminent 19th Century Church Architect William Butterfield whilst the Church was being remodelled in 1858. The passage through the planning process was somewhat complicated as the building was spot Listed midway through the determination period..

'Why can't Caddie be pre-configured to draw everything the way I want to?'

This is a question that we are hearing more and more frequently. Clients are hoping to find tools and symbols for everything they need to use, rather than drawing from scratch.

The symbol library has always been a strength of Caddie, with symbols relating to 'real' manufacturers details rather than just generic objects. The latest symbol library available online contains many new 3D symbols which speed up the creation of models dramatically. In addition we have started publishing online versions of our symbols which can be dropped into drawings directly from a web browser.
