By 2007, I was introduced to BIM and started to prefer 3D modelling over 2D. Within five years, I exclusively used Autodesk’s Revit to deliver all my architectural designs. Today, we store all of our documents in the cloud. Personally, I have always hated creating working drawings and placing dimensions on them one by one.

Or even if such programs exist and students are let loose to model, render and animate to their heart content, once they enter the industry, they get quickly shown the ‘real’ ropes.

Wise commentators dampen their predictions by saying “BIM has the potential” but there are also many that label Revit as DT. As scary as it would be for many for the ‘drawing’ to disappear from the process suddenly, I’d still say it would not be DT – just a bit of yesterday’s news. What if you could do buildings straight away?

The essence of the comment was that they like to dimension like this, where the dimension's witness lines don't extend to the model to keep things neat. For particularly busy documentation they'll add a prefix/suffix to values so it becomes a bit clearer. Neat drawings still take skill and attention to detail even with Revit/BIM.
