Anguleris

Earlier this week, the Anguleris team spent three days together at our team conference. We reflected on the year so far, aligned on the work ahead, and recognized the people who bring our values to life in how they work every day.

Congratulations to all the winners of the 2026 Pony Awards, one for each of our nine company values, and to this year's Rising Star and Coral Award recipients. Each award reflects commitment, care, and consistency that the whole team sees and values.

The standards this team sets for itself are what our manufacturer partners and the wider design community rely on. Thank you to everyone who made these three days count.

A pleasure to stop by and say hello to our BIMsmith customers Form and Fiber Inc., Dero Bike Racks, Realturf, ROMEX North America and Angelus Block Co., Inc. at ASLA this week.

Great to see everyone in person and hear what's ahead for each of them.

In a few weeks, our global team will gather at Anguleris HQ for the annual Team Conference.

The days ahead are built around alignment: workshops, strategy sessions, and cross-team conversations connecting the work happening across BIMsmith , Swatchbox , Modlar , Archbase (Formerly Concora), and Gaudi AI. It's where priorities for the year ahead take shape, and where the collaboration behind every platform gets sharper.

More from the week once it's underway.

Members of the Anguleris staff spent some of their Friday morning volunteering at the Judson University School of Architecture and Interior Design in Elgin, IL 🤝

Team members from both BIMsmith and Swatchbox helped clean, rearrange, and set up the studio workspaces for students about to begin their Fall semester of architecture school.

Our team is grateful to be able to work with Judson to support the next generation of architects and building professionals through the Future Architect Fund 👏

Specification decisions happen early, often before a manufacturer is in the room. BIMsmith Detail Shelf addresses that timing problem directly.

Launched in 2022 and built on a patented many-to-many data model, Detail Shelf lets architects and specifiers search, preview, and download construction details as Revit, DWG, or PDF, with direct insertion into active Revit projects via the BIMsmith plugin. This year's expansion added a larger library and faster discovery tools.

For manufacturers, Detail Shelf means visibility at the moment specification decisions are actually made, not reviewed after the fact. It reflects the principle behind our work with 500+ manufacturer partners: presence at the point of decision determines specification outcomes.

At Anguleris, we believe strong leadership is the foundation of everything we build, from the platforms we create to the partnerships we sustain with manufacturers across the industry.

Last week, as we do every year, we brought members of our team to the The Global Leadership Network Summit, two days focused on leading with clarity and purpose through change. It is a tradition that reflects our commitment to developing leaders at every level of our organization.

Investing in our leaders is not a separate initiative. It is part of how we work.

Last week, Swatchbox, part of the Anguleris family of brands, was on-site at the IIDA Ohio Kentucky Chapter's ZeroLandfill event in Toledo.

Through its Second Life program, Swatchbox recovers unused architectural and design samples and returns them to circulation instead of the landfill.

It's a small step with an outsized impact: less waste, more value from material that's already been made, and a clearer picture of what responsible sampling can look like at scale. It's the kind of model we're proud to stand behind, and one we plan to bring to more events like this going forward.

We're a team of architects, so we've been on both sides of a sample request: waiting for one to arrive before a client meeting, and receiving one that showed up in a box that didn't survive shipping. That experience shapes how we think about specification.

What a manufacturer offers matters, but so does how easily an AEC professional can actually get it, evaluate it, and put it in front of a client. The sample stage is where a lot of that friction lives, and it's often the part manufacturers pay the least attention to.

It's part of why we built Swatchbox: a fulfillment platform designed by people who have specified products under deadline, not by people guessing at what architects need.

If your sample process still feels like an afterthought, let's talk about what Swatchbox can do for your brand 👉 https://www.swatchbox.com/en/sample-programs

Product data scattered across BIMsmithformats and platforms means your team spends more time reformatting than reaching architects.

BIMsmith Forge®, built by Anguleris, turns your product library into ready-to-use Revit assemblies. Architects build wall, floor, ceiling, and roof systems with your real materials, layer by layer, right where they’re already specifying.

We’ve done this for 500+ building product brands: structured once, distributed everywhere, updated instantly when your products change.

Let’s talk about getting your product line into BIMsmith Forge®.

From NeoCon in Chicago straight to AIA 2026 in San Diego, the Anguleris team had a lot to show.

BIMsmith brought its product research and Revit specification tools to the booth. Swatchbox powered the AIA Sample Gallery, giving architects hands-on time with real materials, and shared more about Second Life Samples, our circular sampling program.

And the big reveal: Gaudi AI, our new AI-powered product intelligence platform for architects. Cited sources, confidence indicators, built on verified AEC data.
