Moving from early concepts to design development usually introduces friction: teams might spend valuable time remodelling a design instead of progressing it; design intent gets lost in translation. In the meantime, the submission deadline looms. For architects working in <strong>Revit<\/strong>, this disconnect\u2013and rework\u2013probably sounds familiar.<br><br><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/forma-building-design\/overview\">Forma Building Design<\/a><\/strong> is built to address this gap. By supporting connected workflows across schematic design, site planning, and BIM, it allows architects to carry schematic design exploration forward\u2014reducing rework and enabling a more continuous design process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this post, we\u2019ll explore three workflows that help achieve that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>From <strong>Forma Building Design to Revit<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Between <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/forma-site-design\/overview\">Forma Site Design<\/a> and Building Design<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>From <strong>Building Design to Forma Board<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Workflow 1: From early schematic design to Revit without rework<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A key workflow for Revit users is starting in Forma Building Design and continuing in Revit\u2014without needing to rebuild the model.<\/p>\n\n\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-wistia-inc wp-block-embed-wistia-inc\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"BD_Step5_BD to Revit Video\" src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.net\/embed\/iframe\/j7ufdf002p?dnt=1\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen\" allowtransparency=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"wistia_embed\" name=\"wistia_embed\" msallowfullscreen width=\"500\" height=\"281\" style=\"aspect-ratio:500 \/ 281;width:100%;height:auto;\"><\/iframe><script src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.net\/assets\/external\/E-v1.js\" async><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Start with real site context<\/strong><br>Projects can begin with automatically generated <strong>contextual data<\/strong>, including terrain, surrounding buildings, and site conditions.
