Definitive Design

From conception to construction documentation, 

design projects within an intuitive environment. 

Authoritative Decisions, Sooner

Autodesk Revit Architecture software supports 
early analysis of your building forms so your team 
can make better informed decisions at the earliest 
stages of your project. Use this capability to 
comprehensively clarify areas and volumes, perform 
daylighting and energy analysis, and gain insight 
into manufacturing viability and early construction 
material takeoffs.

Functional Forms

The Building Maker feature in Autodesk Revit 
Architecture helps you transform your conceptual 
forms into fully functional building designs. 
Select and add faces to design walls, roofs, 
floors, and curtain systems. Extract important 
building information, including gross area per 
floor. Bring conceptual massing concepts from 
applications such as AutoCAD

®

 software and 

Autodesk

®

 Maya

®

 software, as well as AutoDesSys 

form•Z

®

, McNeel Rhinoceros

®

, Google™ 

SketchUp

®

, or other ACIS

®

- or NURBS-based 

applications into Autodesk Revit Architecture 
as mass objects and begin schematic design.

Building information 

modeling and Autodesk 

Revit Architecture are 

key components of our  

larger strategy to  

provide a much more 

comprehensive and 

integrated service to  

our clients.

 Architecture software helps 

you explore your most innovative design concepts 
and forms at the earliest possible stages of 
your project, and maintain your vision through 
construction documentation. Purpose-built for 
building information modeling (BIM), Autodesk 
Revit Architecture provides superior support for 
sustainable design, clash detection, construction 
planning, and fabrication, while helping you work 
collaboratively with engineers, contractors, and 
owners. Any and all design changes along the way 
are automatically updated throughout your evolving 
design and documentation, making for more 
coordinated processes and reliable documentation.

Complete Projects, One Environment

New and innovative Autodesk Revit Architecture 
conceptual design features provide easy-to-use 
tools for free-form modeling and parametric design, 
and the ability to support the earliest design 
analyses. Sketch freely, create 3D forms quickly, 
and manipulate forms interactively. Prepare your 
models for fabrication and construction with built-in 
tools for conception and clarification of complex 
forms. Autodesk Revit Architecture automatically 
builds a parametric framework around your most 
complex forms as you continue to design, offering 
you greater levels of creative control, accuracy, and 
flexibility. Take your design from concept model all 
the way to construction documents, all within one 
intuitive environment and user interface.
