Week two. Blushing is the color of virtue.

Today is Day 5 of my Summer class. Only 15 more days of class. I am really liking Revit! It is a pretty easy but advanced computer program that allows for you to draw in 2D, add specific materials to the project, and view it all in 3D. So far we have just had a tutorial of the program, learning the different tools and how they work but this week, we have started to actually put it to use for Interior Design. We are working on a house right now. It is a two story house with a basement. Revit allows you to keep the different drawings that you normally have with a Residential (or any) Project in order as well as work on them separately. What I find very useful about this program is that you can make an adjustment in any view and all other views will be adjusted accordingly. So if you are viewing the house in 3D and you realize you don't like that there is a window there, then you can simply select the window and delete it. It will then be deleted from the 2D drawing, the window list, as well as the 3D view. It is a pretty cool program and I definitely think that it will benefit me in the future. I will hope to post some pictures very soon! (once we actually have something good to show rather than silly exercises to teach us the tools!!)
