The common threads tying together RKD’s work across all these project areas are the design process it undertakes and the software it uses to support it. Almost every new project that RKD undertakes today is carried out using the 3D design modelling solution Revit and Autodesk’s Construction Cloud’s BIM 360 platform.

Autodesk is a company and AutoCAD is software, a product created and sold by Autodesk. Revit started out as an idea shared by two founders (Leonid Raiz and Irwin Jungreis) and they formed Charles River Software in the late 1990''s (97-99). I tend to think of my software bias as having been influenced by "my parents".
