In addition to designing for his
clients, Hardy-Brown has
become an outsource partner
for several architectural
practices. I take projects over
once the concepts are
finalised and, with Revit
Architecture, quickly
produce relevant
documentation.
Unlike computer-aided design
(CAD) systems
of old that simply
produced
dumb 2D or 3D
representations of buildings,
Revit Architecture
creates an
intelligent building
model for each
project. This is much more than
simply geometry. It is underpinned
by a powerful
database that
contains every shred of
information
pertaining
to the model.Information
in the database is
viewed
concurrently in graphic and text
views these
include 2D and 3D views,
plans,
sections, and
even elevations.
Real-time
revisions means a
change in any of these views
filters instantly
throughout all
the other views.
This means quick
and
affordable creation of
3D rendered conceptual images
even for a
small practice.
And rapid
revisions mean
concepts can be refined until
both the architect
and client are
happy with the
design.
For Hardy-Brown, this means
improved
communication with
the entire
project team
from
client, to council, to
contractors
helping to streamline projects
and deliver
better quality.

House Botha,
An exciting residential project for Mr & Mrs Botha.
House Botha is a 650 square metre luxury home,
with lots of double volumes, and separate family
and entertainment areas. They are connected
by a bridge link, so the children can be
comfortable in the family living area, away from
late night entertainment.
In addition, Autodesk has written a customer success story on House Botha with MHB Designs. This can be downloaded HERE
