Hi all and welcome to Summer Quarter 2012 BIM for Interior Design (ELDS 335). This quarter we'll be exploring how we can effectively use the building information modeling tool, Revit, along with other design software to communicate a small, commercial interior design project. Starting with ACAD as-built drawings, you'll learn about phasing, design options, linking file types, custom family creation, project deliverables, and rendering. As you'll see in the syllabus schedule, the pace of the class moves rather quickly, and each phase builds on the previous, so it would be in your best interest to keep up. I know that summer classes can be tricky with pools, beaches, and barbecues lurking around every corner, but rest assured that the effort you put into this class will serve you well both in your future academic studios and professional practice.
Look to this blog for resources, project descriptions, and examples. I will occasionally be posting your work as examples as well. If you have any information or questions that you'd like to share with the class feel free to post comments on the blog (where they are permitted).
Looking forward to a great quarter!
