ReThinking BIM A4715
Thursdays 5-7 pm, 115 Avery Hall
with Mark Green mtg2111@columbia.edu
What is the place of BIM in architecture? Is it only meant for production, or can architectural design benefit
from the real time feedback available from Building Information Models. BIM can, and will change the
profession, this generation is responsible for how that will be. Not having to deal with professional demands,
students will be able to explore BIM strategies which in the work place are not possible. These virtual
buildings are requiring that architects be much more aware of all aspects of design.
The intention of this work shop will be to develop a thorough understanding of BIM, most importantly how
can we intervene in the process to not let it be strictly about efficiency. How is the time gained from these
tools re-appropriated? How can the concepts of parametric modeling infiltrate the design process? Using
software that forces rigor can we learn from it and re-apply those logics to other aspects of what we do?
Students will use Autodesk Revit, to create a parametric architectural system with embedded variability.
A direct relationship with Autodesk has been established which allow for an exchange with the
software developer.
