Hi, I'm Marion Lachaud, architect in France for "Ecorces Architecture".
I've just download a file called "THEEW-EDNA" which is a chair 3D model, via your website. When I open the .gsm downloaded, it asks me a password. Can you give me it please? Thanks,
Hi Marion, that normally happens when you try and open the ArchiCAD GSM file directly, as the manufacture protects the script (so you can't edit the chair's form). To use it please add it to your product via ArchiCAD's library manager.

What the best green roof product
I'm designing a new residential project in california, and want to have a green roof on top of it.I'm having trouble finding information and feedback, on which product(s) are best and won't leak over time (obviously me and my client's biggest fair).
There are a variety of green roofing products available with varied prices, ranging from reclaimed wood shingles to plastic ones so the best products would depend on the design and location of the house. Try GAF http://www.gaf.com/Roofing/Residential/Products/Shingles/Timberline if it suits your need and budget.

I have done a search for "level 2 electrical vehicle charging station" as tagged in your question, but I can't find any objects with this name. Would you be able to share the link to the object so I can change the category from 3D to 2D?
