“Christopher Davison, AIA, with Realty Restoration especially loves the ability software gives him to share key concepts with his clients. Davison uses Autodesk ® Revit, a software specifically created for Building Information Modeling (BIM), and considers it the workhorse behind all his designs. “For years, design and construction documents were separated into different programs: one for visual representation and the other for documentation,” he explains. “Revit allows me to design in 3D and work on the construction documents at the same time. Being able to show a client, who would otherwise have trouble visualizing a space, the before and after potential of their kitchen is priceless.”
