Designers are constantly seeking new sources of inspiration and for technologies that most naturally translate that inspiration into a viable design. We’ve listened intently to your feedback and have integrated new enhancements and capabilities to these latest releases in order to meet designers’ and architects’ key needs and software-use nuances. All updates have been made to further stimulate your creativity and continue to offer as much design flexibility as possible.

Both solidThinking 8.0 and solidThinking 8.0 Inspired will feature major user-centric design and productivity enhancements, such as a restyled and more streamlined user interface, powerful 3D manipulators for transformations, real-time and progressive rendering, new materials and models libraries, High Dynamic Range Imaging (HDRI) capabilities, and much more. Additionally, as part of solidThinking 8.0 Inspired we’re introducing new sources of computational inspiration, including morphogenesis™ – a new technology that allows designers to leverage efficiencies in nature when creating and developing their designs.

Drawing on the principles of biomimicry, the morphogenesis feature in the premiere release of solidThinking 8.0 Inspired mimics processes and physical laws in nature to help designers and architects generate forms and structures in response to environmental conditions, using the results as inspiration to further stimulate their designs.

The advancements within solidThinking 8.0 and 8.0 Inspired are dedicated to providing our users with the capability to explore virtually countless design options.
