Our Software
Dwelling On Design leverages the power of Revit and Enscape in delivering exceptional design and drafting services.
Revit Architecture is a software program developed by Autodesk for building information modeling (BIM) in the architecture, engineering, and construction industries. It is used to create 3D building models, as well as 2D drawings, schedules, and construction documents. Revit Architecture allows architects, engineers, and construction professionals to collaborate on building projects, share information, and make design decisions in real-time. It also enables users to create and analyze building simulations, generate energy reports, and perform cost estimating. Revit Architecture is a powerful tool that helps architects, engineers, and builders to design, build, and manage projects more efficiently.
Enscape 3d imaging software program allows us to take our Revit modelling to the next level and produce realistic 3D images, which brings our designs to life and help clients understand what there project will look like once it is constructed.
