VectorWorks, Design Software Of Choice
for Emmy-nominated TV Show

Columbia, Maryland (September 9, 2004)—Nemetschek North America announced today that VectorWorks is the preferred CAD program for the design team of Bravo’s Emmy-nominated television show, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. The show received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Art Direction for a Variety or Music program and is competing for this award against the Grammys, the Oscars, and Saturday Nite Live.

"At the Queer Eye for the Straight Guy Art Department, we re-design a home interior on the average of once a week. We needed a CAD program that is versatile and easy to use and that is why we chose VectorWorks. Our decorators love the fact that they can drop furniture into a ground plan using the extensive symbol libraries, and the SmartCursor™ feature ensures that our drawings are accurate. All in all, it has improved our ability to meet deadlines and communicate changes in our department," said John Paino, Production Designer for Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.

Queer Eye for the Straight Guy follows a team of five gay men who have dedicated their lives to extolling the simple virtues of style, taste, and class. Each week their mission is to transform a style-deficient and culture-deprived straight man from drab to fab, in each of their respective categories: fashion, food and wine, interior design, grooming, and culture.

Nemetschek North America (formerly Diehl Graphsoft) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of European software giant Nemetschek AG.
