Using a workflow-based approach that mirrors how projects progress in the real world, the book then guides readers through schematic design considerations creating walls and curtain walls designing floors, roofs and ceilings and adding stairs, ramps and railings. Readers then learn how to work with families, groups and phasing, as well as rooms and color fill patterns. This revision includes a great new chapter on rendering and visualization and it also explores effective work sharing, details and annotations, creating compelling drawing sets, professional workflows. It concludes with tips and tricks drawn from the authors` extensive experience.
