It is packed with detailed diagrams, images, formulas and workflows. While it may initially seem that the content of this edition is for advanced users only, in actual fact Paul has provided appropriately basic parts to help beginner Revit users, and at the same time even highly experienced users will have the occasional moment where they say "ah, that's much better than the way I currently do that." The book delves into proper use of the two key Revit family environments: the traditional Family Editor, and the Massing Environment. (yes, I did have to look up what "grasp the nettle" meant :-) This book brings together three of the author's favorite things: architecture, history and Revit in a hands-on manual like nothing else available From the foreword: 'Paul Aubin has carved out a distinctive niche in the overlapping worlds of BIM, Revit & Education. "The fact that you are reading this foreword suggests that you too are excited by what Revit can do. Leverage the power of the Revit family editor to create complex forms drawn from classical architecture. It is hard to put it better than Andy Milburn in the Forward: It has a larger and more interesting scope.Ĭombining elements of history, architectural theory, good Revit practices, and of course, the "how-to" bit as well, Renaissance Revit is well worth a read.
What I like about this particular work is that it does not just cover simple "how-to" steps for certain tasks.
He is the author of many Revit-related books, but the most recently published edition focuses on using Revit to make and present Classical and Renaissance building forms and architecture. Happily, there are people out there who do know how to do those things in Revit - you just have to find those people and take the time to learn from them. "You can't do that in Revit" is a common catch-phrase for those who do not know the program well.
