Do I need to know Revit before joining this workshop?

Yes, basic Revit skills are required. If you’re unfamiliar, we recommend completing our Revit Basics 101 course or reviewing the suggested tutorials on Revit Family Editor before the workshop.

What’s the role of Rhino.Inside in the workflow?

Rhino.Inside enables seamless data and geometry transfer between Rhino/Grasshopper and Revit. You’ll use it to integrate complex parametric elements like tower facades into the BIM environment for documentation and analysis.

Will I learn how to create a complete building model?

Yes. You’ll model the tower’s shell, structure, and floors parametrically, then transfer it into Revit to complete the BIM setup, calculate areas, and generate presentation-ready visuals and documentation.

What kind of visuals will we produce during the workshop?

In the final session, you’ll use ComfyUI and Photoshop for post-processing and rendering, resulting in polished architectural visuals and diagrams suitable for presentations or portfolios.

Will this workshop help me streamline my architectural design-to-documentation workflow?

The workshop focuses on integrating parametric design with BIM to accelerate the transition from concept to documentation.

Introduction of the workshop:

The focus of the workshop is to create a conceptual design for the Residential Tower. We will consider all stages of this process, from idea to 3D and BIM modeling. The workshop simulates a situation when it is necessary to present a complete building design within a short time frame, while the 3D model and the accuracy of the area calculations should be sufficient to apply the results to further detailed design. We will use the most effective tools to achieve this goal.

For ComfyUI, we will need some models and custom nodes. A detailed guide on how to download them To access it, click "Watch Now" → "Files" → "Download Course Files"

What You’ll Learn?

Project organization using BIM technology

Generating complex facades and details in Rhino + Grasshopper

Utilize Rhino.Inside to transfer geometry and parameters from Rhino to Revit and vice versa

Rendering and post-processing in ComfyUI and Photoshop

Developing Revit templates and families for efficient project setup

Creating tower shells, cores, slabs, and columns parametrically in Grasshopper

Integrating detailed geometry into BIM with accurate area calculations

Preparing presentation-ready diagrams and documentation in Revit

BIM & Rhino.Inside for Advanced Tower Design

Methodology:

This workshop will teach you how to build a detailed 3D model in which relatively simple geometry will be created directly in BIM (Autodesk Revit Families), while geometrically complex parts will be generated in Rhino and Grasshopper. We will use Rhino.Inside to provide a direct connection between the different project environments.

Program:

Day 1 – October 4, 2025

Workshop overview
Short introduction about the overall workflow that we will use during the workshop
Lecture: Project organization using BIM technology
This lecture will introduce the BIM workflow for projects that feature complex shells or other sophisticated building components. It will also demonstrate examples of projects where this approach has been used.
Revit: Preparing templates, families, and empty models for further project development
This is the organizational part that precedes any project.

Day 2 – October 5, 2025

Rhino + Grasshopper: Developing the tower’s shell
This section will focus on programming and modeling the tower’s shape and facade details as well as main structural elements (building core, slabs, and columns).

Day 3 – October 11, 2025

Rhino.Inside and Revit: Creating the final model
This section will focus on Revit and Rhino.Inside, we will transfer previously developed facade elements into the BIM environment. Then we will develop typical floors, calculate areas, and prepare graphical schemes for the final presentation.

Day 4 – October 12, 2025

Revit: Final adjustments for presentation
Final tweaks in Revit to ensure all geometry, views, and annotations are presentation-ready.
Rendering and post-processing with AI + Photoshop
This section will focus on ComfyUI + Photoshop workflow for producing final renders of the project.
