Affortable House







































In this project we are trying to use our revit skill to make a whole house that fallows the homes for humanity requirements.


I liked this project because we could have freedome to have our house look how we want it. What i didnt like was the size requirement for the whole house because i thaught it was a bit small. I would change the size requierment and make it 1200 for a one to two room house

Affordable housing

In this project we are tasked with creating a designe and making it on revit that meets most of the criteria for a house built by Habitat for Humanity.

I have enjoyed this project so far but i believe it will challenge our revit skills sense we are still beginners and this is a fairly complex project.

Shed Project


In this project we were told to designe a shed on Revit. We were told how to and had to fallow the directions science this was our first time using Revit.

In this project i learned the basics of how to use Revit. What was challenging was the fact that I had never used the program before so just knowing where everything is and how to accomplish certain tasks. It was important because it showed me the simplicity of revit (kinda) but the complexity of a shed.

Roof Project



In this project we were required to create a roof style with the necessary parts of the roof shown like shingles, under-lament, trusses.


In this project we learned the different parts of the roof and what they are used for. I liked how much time we had to do this project because we could relax and not have to rush. I liked everything about this project so i would not change anything.

CEA Victorian Blog


I loved this project. I did because I am a hands on person and thsi project did it for me. This was a fun project but i could have used more time and more materials that wont get stolen. other than that this project was a good idea to show us the different architectural styles.
