Best Practices for Revit and Enscape with Phil Read – 2 Nights Only! – May 16th @ cBIMc & May 18th @ eBIMc

Real-Time in Real-Time: Best Practices for Revit and Enscape

Presented by: Phil Read of Read | Thomas

Don’t settle for still image rendering when you can fully explore your building design from every angle and location.

Recent advances in game engines and graphics processing allows us to go from Revit to real-time in practically real time. But getting beautiful results isn’t accidental – it takes careful attention to detail often overlooked when creating still image renderings.

Let’s begin by focusing on three key areas in Revit: lighting, materials, family components. By the end of this session, you’ll be able to create beautifully compelling and time saving virtual presentations of your Revit project that improve the decision-making process of your design teams, consultants and clients.

Product Review: FenestraPro Premium – For Energy-Efficient and Aesthetically Pleasing Façade Design

This is a re-post I did a guest author for Tim over at the Revit Add-ons Blog.

FenestraPro – Energy Analyses and Facade Design in One Powerful Revit Add-on.

FenestraPro was born when co-founders David Palmer and Simon Whelan saw a need.

“It was through our own practice and research that we recognized the requirement a software or tool that allowed Architects to design energy efficient building and facades to achieve the required performance without compromising the aesthetic of the facade”.

  • Simon Whelan, Co- Founder / COO

The real goal of FenestraPro is to allow the Architect to have control over the facade design from an early stage of design through to completion. This goal can be seen right on the FenestraPro landing page, with the mantra: “Improve Your Design, Reduce Time & Maintain Aesthetic Control,” along with the accompanying graphic:
