About this course

Throughout the course, we embark on a thrilling journey – modeling the iconic Cité Radieuse (Unité d'Habitation de Marseille) by legendary architect Le Corbusier. This immersive project allows you to hone your skills while recreating a piece of architectural history.

This advanced Revit course develops your expertise in large-scale BIM projects through Le Corbusier's iconic Cité Radieuse, teaching you to handle complex residential developments with repetitive housing units and integrated community facilities. You'll master advanced modeling techniques that manage building complexity while maintaining model performance and coordination accuracy.

The Cité Radieuse project serves as the perfect vehicle for understanding multidisciplinary BIM coordination, from structural frameworks to MEP integration. You'll learn to organize and manage complex building information that facilitates collaboration with engineering consultants while maintaining design intent throughout the development process.

Advanced workflow techniques include site modeling, topographical integration, and comprehensive documentation strategies that support large-scale project delivery. The course covers scheduling methodologies, space programming, and visualization techniques that communicate complex architectural programs to clients and construction teams.

These advanced skills position you to tackle contemporary housing projects, mixed-use developments, and institutional buildings where BIM coordination is essential for project success. The techniques learned apply directly to competition work, large residential developments, and complex building types that require sophisticated modeling and coordination capabilities.

Syllabus

Chapter 1 - BIM Fundamentals & Project Setup+
Lesson 1 – Introduction (1:10:08)

In this lesson, you will learn about what makes BIM and Revit different from other CAD software and modelling methods, and you will also familiarize yourself with the Revit interface, navigation, and the basic modelling principles.

Lesson 2 – Starting a New Project (33:19)

In this lesson, you will learn how Views work in Revit, how to Link external drawings into the project, and then how to start setting up your new building model with Levels and Grids.

Chapter 2 - Structural Framework & Building Envelope+
Lesson 3 – Modelling the Buildings Structure (1:09:52)

In this lesson, you will learn to use structural framing elements in Revit, from an architectural designer's perspective, and model the main structural framework for the Unité d'Habitation.

Lesson 4.1 – Modelling the Envelope – Part 1 (59:45)

In this lesson, you will learn all about the main Architectural Building Elements that make up a building in Revit: Walls and Curtain Walls, Floors and Roofs.

Lesson 4.2 – Modelling the Envelope – Part 2 (55:20)

The lesson completes with the modelling of the external envelope of the Unité d'Habitation.

Chapter 3 - Interior Design & Space Planning+
Lesson 5.1 – Modelling the Interior – Part 1 (1:00:22)

In this lesson, you will learn to model the interior of the Unité, and learn how to use Stairs, Railings, Openings, Doors and Windows, and Groups.

Lesson 5.2 – Modelling the Interior – Part 2 (1:00:25)

The lesson completes with teaching you how to model the two typical apartment layouts that extend below and above the central public circulation corridor.

Lesson 6 – Furniture, Fixtures, and Finishes (34:50)

In this lesson, you will learn how to populate the building model with furniture and fixture objects using the Component tool, best practices regarding sourcing these items, and also how to develop and detail finishes in your project.

Chapter 4 - Site Context & Documentation+
Lesson 7 – Topography (19:30)

In this lesson, you will learn how to use the Toposolid tool to develop the ground surfaces surrounding the Unité d'Habitation.

Lesson 8 – Site and Context (27:44)

In this lesson, you will learn how to create your site context model using Massing Volumes, how to define additional site information, and then create a Site Plan view to capture everything in your project.

Lesson 9 – Areas, Rooms, Tags, and Schedules (44:32)

In this lesson, you will learn about Areas and Rooms and how to use them to quantify and catalogue the spaces in the building, to better understand them, illustrate them graphically, and then extract this information and assemble it in a Schedule.

Lesson 10 – Annotation and Detailing (35:10)

In this lesson, you will learn how to add 2D detail and annotation elements to your Views, to enhance them visually or to identify crucial aspects of the project. Additionally, you will get a better understanding of the differences between Model and Drafting elements and views.

Lesson 11 – Views, Visibility, and Graphics (36:38)

In this lesson, you will learn about Views, and more specifically, about how to interact with the Views Parameters and Extents, and see how you can use the Revit camera to better visualise areas of the model and even walk through the spaces.

Lesson 12 – Sheets, Printing, Exports (30:52)

In this lesson, you will learn how to layout all the information and drawings that you have created thus far, how to create Sheets and populate them with Views, and discuss how Revisions work in Revit. Lastly, a brief overview of the options to export and publish the information to other media.
