We help create the built environment with free software, increased transparency, and a more ethical approach.

On this wiki, we collect and share everything we know about the free technology in our industry. Every page on this website was written by people just like you.

Interested in OSArch initiatives, and why OSArch is so important to the design, construction, operation, and recycling of the built environment? See an introduction to what OSArch is all about. Join over 700 community members and over 100 wiki editors who have authored over 100 wiki articles.

Right now, we're looking in particular for volunteers to help with these things. If you're up for it, post on the forums and let us know!

  • We need someone to help manage the OSArch Twitter account.
  • We need someone to help design a curriculum to teach about AEC tools and OpenBIM concepts.
