As an introduction exercise to Revit BIM software, students were given a selection of buildings to replicate through digital means. The buildings given were in most cases poorly documented. Research was graphically oriented in the forms of images, sketches and plans which were put together to define the massing of the building.
A particular part was then chosen for a layout to experiment with some further options in Revit. Here, in La Tourette, I chose to layout the individual rooms of the monastery.
This exercise was indeed very useful to kickstart our individual projects for the semester. If you need the CAD file (mostly massing) just drop me an email, I’ll be glad to help.
