Our little 3D model is really starting to take shape now. If you missed last Saturday’s workshop, you missed the addding of the second floor. We brought in many of RevitCity’s families to help us complete some furnishing. We are just about ready to add a roof and the small pool to the courtyard. Next week should be very interesting after putting the roof and and making some changesto the exterior part of the building. It will be interesting to see how Matt is doing with his Sketch-up building and how the two will compare.  Revit is such a woderful tool, giving us the ability to actually layout quick designs in a matter of a few hours.  I think the only thing that comes close to this is sketch-up.  I can see now, how sketch-up and Revit can really compliment each other.  It’s really exciting especially as we work on the same project.  Come check us out fro yourself.

We have just started our new series of RevitShop workshops and started off with a wonderful afternoon this past Saturday. We followed the sketchup workshop which was a great transition right into some 3D modeling.
We are starting with the basics and working our way through all the functions of Revit. There is still time to join us for the basics before we get into the real meat and potatoes of all the possibilities of what Revit can really do.  This Saturday, August 8, we will be taking our little cottage and dissecting it.  We will cover sections and elevations and how to put them on sheets with notations.  We will also be enlarging some plans and showing details.  You don’t want to miss it, so sign up now.  See you Saturday.
