Streamlined Communication Creates Stunning Results
How can BIM make communication better?
Effective communication is essential for successful project execution in the world of interior design. Imagine a scenario where changing the location of a sconce automatically updates all relevant documents, including elevations, renderings, material schedules, and lighting plans. This seamless integration is achievable with Building Information Modeling (BIM), which provides a structured approach to managing information, reducing conflicts and miscommunication. In this blog, we will explore how interior designers can collaborate with a BIM or virtual design construction (VDC) partner to create top-notch documentation and immersive 3D and VR experiences for clients.
Finding a Trusted BIM Partner & Defining the Workflow
Start by identifying a trusted BIM partner who will work with you to develop a clear communication workflow. This workflow should outline what you, as the interior designer, need to provide to achieve a successful outcome. Key considerations include the architectural work or existing conditions information required and the responsible party for its provision. Furthermore, establish how interior design selections and furnishings details will be communicated and through which systems. When used effectively, BIM can generate schedules based on architectural work, facilitating a list of base selections that need to be made.
Providing Your Assets and an Example of Excellence
To ensure the best results, supply your BIM partner with examples of high-quality specification books to emulate. Additionally, provide your logo, title block, and branding standards to be incorporated into the document production. Be open to modifying your workflow to enhance efficiency.
Deliverables from Your BIM Partner
In return, you should receive comprehensive material schedules, 3D visualizations, and construction documentation, including floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, elevations of all walls, and furniture plans. This approach allows you to spend less time drafting and more time refining the design to meet your clients' needs.
