This type of workflow is an integral part of developing a design solution. With Revit design options can range in scale from entire façade studies down to kitchen layouts all in the same integrated model. You ll acquire the following skills in this chapter Designing options work in Revit Creating new design options Presenting multiple design options Showing quantities and cost schedules for multiple options Consolidating your options and settling on a final solution Revit Design Options Revit provides a set of tools geared for developing multiple designs in the context of one project.

With Revit design options you create evaluate and mock up a wide range of options in the context of your project file. You re free to mock up multiple roof configurations entry canopies furniture and office layouts and stairs anything that can be modeled. Figure shows an example of the same model with two different entry canopies. Each canopy belongs to a separate design option that can be displayed or hidden in any view. This lets you create views that show each option so the two designs can be evaluated against one another.
