Structured Documentation Review
Audited AutoCAD drawings based on comments and created a consolidated RFI list to resolve conflicts before production.
Multi-Family Residential
From Redlines to Renders: Multi-Family Apartment, Las Vegas
From resolving drawing discrepancies to developing facade options and realistic 3D renders, the 225,624 sq.ft. residential project progressed through a structured workflow.
Overview
Project Overview
A Las Vegas-based architectural design firm engaged our team to support documentation review and design visualization for a multi-family apartment development. The project was executed through a dedicated remote architect embedded within the client's workflow, enabling fast iteration on documentation updates and facade visualization while maintaining continuous coordination.
The result was a clean documentation set and a compelling visual package that enabled the client to move confidently into design approvals and next-stage development.

Tools We Use
Inside the Tools You Already Use
Delivery ran in Autodesk Revit, Lumion, and AutoCAD so outputs landed in the same platforms your team already uses for documentation and design reviews.

Input vs Output
From mark-up-heavy CAD sets to coordinated drawings and photorealistic renders, every input was transformed into decision-ready output.
What We Received
- Existing 2D AutoCAD drawing set
- Client submission comments and RFI inputs
- Technical and graphical mark-ups
- Design references and brief
- Approved interior layouts and finish schedule
What We Delivered
- Coordinated and corrected AutoCAD drawing set
- Updated floor plans with resolved mark-ups
- Construction-feasible Revit facade models
- Multi-option material and massing studies
- Photorealistic Lumion exterior and interior renders
Client Challenges
Pain Points of the Client
These four constraints shaped the engagement and drove a documentation-first, visualization-led approach.
01
Drawing Discrepancies & Coordination Gaps
Existing drawings had inconsistencies that needed correction before the project could progress to production.
02
Design Decision Bottleneck
Multiple facade and material options were needed with no clear visual reference to start decision-making from.
03
First-Time Documentation Involvement
Fast onboarding and precise understanding of requirements were critical from day one of engagement.
04
Dual-Purpose Output Needed
Visuals had to serve both technical approvals and marketing needs simultaneously.
Our Approach
How We Solved It
A remote architect embedded in the client's workflow closed gaps from redlines through renders.
Systematic Mark-Up Resolution
Incorporated technical and graphical mark-ups into AutoCAD files, ensuring layer consistency and coordination.
Multiple Facade Options, Iteratively Refined
Created 3D facade models in Revit on client references, U.S. standards, exploring materials & massing through iterative reviews.
High-Quality Renders for Dual Use
Exported Revit models to Lumion for photorealistic renderings and delivered interior, exterior packages for approvals and marketing.
Execution Strategy
A Structured Delivery Workflow - Phase by Phase
The project progressed through a structured delivery workflow. Beginning with documentation audit and RFI consolidation, followed by coordinated drawing updates, BIM facade development, and final visualization.
Documentation Review
AutoCAD audit against submission comments to establish a clean baseline before production updates.
