Learn to use Revit to model your architectural projects and get impressive designs

A parametric building is a design that has been manipulated using parameters, where just one single variable has the power to completely change the end result. In this course, architect and Revit expert Arturo Bustíos Casanova teaches you how to use this powerful software to model these types of buildings.

Your teacher walks you through how to work on a six-floor parametric construction with four department types. Complete your final piece with images, videos, and different graphic views to infuse your project with personality and realism. If you'd like to learn more on the subject, you might also be interested in Arturo's previous course 3D Architectural Design and Modeling with Revit.
