The architectural services provided by ORIGIN are more focused on the implementation of BIM into architecture rather than the architectural design itself.
However, we offer a wide range of services, including BIM modeling, drafting, and photorealistic visualizations.
BIM modeling is the process of creating a 3D model that incorporates non-graphical information.
This information can be used by architects, engineers, contractors, and other stakeholders to plan, design, construct, and manage buildings or infrastructure assets.

BIM modeling can be conducted using various inputs: laser scanning, PDFs, CAD, and reference 3D models. Before modeling takes place, it is essential to know the purpose of the model.
This makes it clear how detailed the BIM model should be.
This level of detailing is known as LOD.
At ORIGIN, we help clients understand their needs in the context of BIM modeling and propose a reasonable level of detailing to shorten the BIM model delivery time.
Despite the beneficial process of creating drawings as an extraction from a BIM model, many companies still rely on a 2D approach for their designs. However, in certain cases, it becomes evident that a BIM model is necessary. This is where specialists from ORIGIN can assist.
The creation of a BIM model from 2D CAD or PDF files is a process that also helps in identifying issues and drawing mistakes when viewing the entire picture in 3D mode.
In Autodesk Revit, a family is a group of objects that share common parameters and are used to create specific building components or elements. A Revit family can be anything from a door or window to a complex piece of mechanical equipment or furniture.
Creating a library of Revit families is important because it allows designers and engineers to quickly and easily access pre-built components that can be used in their projects, saving time and improving efficiency.
Overall, creating a library of Revit families can help streamline the design process and improve collaboration among team members.
In the context of parametric modeling, we would like to highlight the following approaches:
Revit Adaptive Components.
These are fully customized and parametrized families in Autodesk Revit that enable the creation of complex and customizable parametric forms.
Revit Dynamo add-in.
It is a visual programming add-in for Autodesk Revit that empowers designers and engineers to develop custom scripts and workflows for their BIM projects. Using a node-based interface, it facilitates the creation of logic and automation of repetitive tasks in Revit, simplifying the creation of complex models and optimizing the design process. It is also useful for data analysis and model manipulation.
Rhino Inside Revit.
This tool functions similarly to the Dynamo add-in but offers even more robust capabilities. It features a more comprehensive library of tools for data analysis, geometry creation, and modification.
BIM model-based estimates utilize the data contained within a BIM model, including material quantities and labor requirements, to generate cost estimates that are more accurate and reliable compared to traditional estimating methods. The use of BIM model-based estimates can help mitigate the risk of cost overruns and enhance overall project management.
The purpose of visualizations in architecture is to help communicate and convey design ideas, concepts and plans to project parties.
Photorealistic static renders take time, but nothing gives you the same impression, feeling, and understanding of a building object like them.
At ORIGIN, we have talented artists who produce high-quality images that make you question whether they are renders or not!
Additionally, we also generate quick images using software like Autodesk Revit, Lumion, and Twinmotion.
These videos are typically created using a combination of Autodesk Revit, Lumion, and Twinmotion.
They provide a complete visual representation of the object and are produced efficiently by the skilled specialists at ORIGIN.
Having a BIM model is half of the job. The next step is to extract the views and schedules to combine nice-looking sheets.
Specialists of ORIGIN produce CDs, Permit Sets, and Shop Drawings for various building types. Typically, we keep the process of drawings production in Autodesk Revit, using a BIM model.
Despite the beneficial process of creating drawings through the extraction from a BIM model, many companies still rely on a 2D approach for their designs. At ORIGIN, we are pleased to assist companies that are willing to transition their workflow from CAD to BIM, guiding them throughout the process.
