 Which makes it quite powerful: It can actually model BOTH spaces as well as built-matter. TAD recognizes six kind of fundamental "alphabets" of architecture -- these are listed below. Which makes it quite powerful: It can actually model BOTH spaces as well as built-matter.

 +Some people wonder why is that TAD claims to be a kind of BIM (Building Information Modeler) and yet when you start using it, it almost looks simplistic. The files produced  by TAD are also extremely small and TAD itself can work with very little resources.

 +That is because of a big conceptual advantage in TAD... it uses something called //just-in-time modelling//  This needs to be carefully understood and hence it is [[just in time modelling|explained separately here]]
