Conclusion

00:00

Before we finish this module, it's important to identify some key points for best practice.

00:08

It is important to establish the Project Base Point at the beginning of a project,

00:14

so that all the information is related to the geolocation of the building.

00:22

It's important to scale the images and external data correctly before bringing into the Environment

00:29

to reduce the amount of edits that might be required to convert the image or data.

00:36

Create simple forms to be defined later within the design process.

00:41

Keep it simple. And you can redefine the geometry as you move forward.

00:48

These are just some of the best practices the designers can use when working with FormIt.

00:55

To provide a summary for this module,

00:57

we have focused on locating the project location and generating associated information on this

01:07

to help the designer to inform the design process based on early conceptual design work.

01:17

We've then worked through early conceptual massing and manipulating the geometry

01:24

to achieve graphical results within an interface to then overlay to project boundaries.

01:34

To conclude this module, Activity 1, we identified the Project location.

01:42

In Activity 2, we established the levels to a particular project.

01:47

Activity 3,

01:49

we referenced design sketches to enable a early conceptual mass to be created.

01:58

We then covered in Activity 4,

02:01

geometry creation and this was based off the sketches that we brought into FormIt.

02:08

Thanks for your time. And I hope you enjoyed the module and what FormIt has to offer for your projects.
