Connecting Skema to Revit: A Quick Start Guide
Integrating Skema with Revit allows you to move from early design exploration to coordinated BIM without rebuilding your project. This tutorial walks through the basic workflow, from importing a model to generating native Revit elements.
Step 1: Import Your Design
Start by opening Skema and importing your project from one of the supported sources. Existing geometry, floor layouts, and design constraints are preserved, giving you a solid foundation for further development. Once the model is loaded, review the imported content and verify that levels, boundaries, and key elements have been recognized correctly before moving on.
Step 2: Generate Intelligent Building Layouts
With your project imported, use Skema's AI-powered tools to generate and refine layouts. You can create multiple design options, edit units, adjust circulation, and evaluate different planning strategies in minutes. Because the model remains data-driven, every change is coordinated across the project instead of requiring manual updates.
Step 3: Export to Native Revit
When your design is ready, export it directly to Revit. Skema generates native Revit elements rather than static geometry, making the model immediately usable for documentation, coordination, and downstream BIM workflows. Walls, rooms, levels, and other supported objects remain editable inside Revit, allowing your team to continue working with familiar tools without starting from scratch.
