Websites for Downloading Templates and Families for Revit Projects

Looking for templates and families for your Revit projects? Find the perfect resources for your designs in this article.

Arturo Bustíos (@arturo_bustiosc) is a Chilean architect and passionate about modeling spaces. Of well-defined, functional and innovative spaces, without ever forgetting the final aesthetics. His specialty is the design and, of course, the modeling and coordination of projects under the BIM methodology with the Autodesk Revit program. Revit is a building information modeling (BIM) software for planning, designing, constructing and managing buildings and infrastructure projects. This system is capable of modeling in detail from simple structures to more complex buildings and, at the same time, solving design problems that may arise in the steps prior to construction.

Arturo Bustíos recommends these sites to download families and use them in your projects:

BIMobject

It is an online platform specialized in BIM content management and distribution. The main purpose of BIMobject is to provide architects, engineers, designers and construction professionals with access to a wide range of high quality BIM objects and components, such as Revit families, CAD files and 3D models, for use in construction and design projects. The goal of BIMobject is to be able to realize digital projects in the construction sector by promoting more sustainable and efficient processes.

RevitCity

This is an online community for professionals in the architecture and construction industry. It was created with the intention of exchanging information and resources related to Revit. Architects, engineers, designers and other construction professionals using Revit software can share their ideas and projects. RevitCity offers access to downloadable content such as Revit families and objects, access to discussion forums, blogs and tutorials. A way to connect and collaborate with other professionals in the construction and BIM design industry.

Architecture Catalog

It is just that, an online catalog of architectural products, such as building materials and BIM objects, for architects and construction professionals in Chile. It specializes in providing clear and accurate information to those architects, builders and clients looking to specify their projects, putting them in contact with the main suppliers of architecture and construction.

And now, would you like to design a parametric building? A parametric building is a design manipulated by parameters in which a single variable is able to completely change the final result. In the Domestika online course by Arturo Bustíos Parametric Building Modeling with Revit, in which you will learn how to use Revit to model a parametric building. You will work by realizing the project of a six-story parametric building, designing 4 types of apartments. First, you will become familiar with Revit to prepare a design template. It will also teach you how to modify the base design to create different types of apartments. And you will complete your delivery with images, videos and different graphic views in which you will be able to give your own personal touch and realism to your project.
