REVIT Best Practices: Setting up a Project Template Part 6 – Typical Doors & Windows
Continuing on our REVIT template journey, we are going to look at loading some typical door and window families. Although the standard REVIT door and window families aren’t horrible, they don’t offer the level of flexibility I like when jumping into REVIT. They are one of the first families I always load, so why not…
Project Spotlight: Sea Level Dr
So this week we have to take another detour from our Revit template series to give a project spotlight and update on our Malibu project with Nathan Turner.

REVIT Best Practices: Setting up a Project Template Part 4 – Schedules
One of REVITs most powerful functions is its ability to embed a lot of information into your model and schedule it. What are the appliances? How many interior doors are there?

REVIT Best Practices: Creating a Project Template Part 1 – Mental Preparation
I have a love/hate relationship with templates. I LOVE using templates, but I HATE setting them up. I am a huge advocate of having and using templates in a small firm to increase efficiency and productivity. We have office templates (thanks EntreArchitect for generating our base files!) to generate proposals, do cost estimating, set up specification…
