“What if you could predict a building’s performance before placing your first wall? Forma gives you that power. It’s your environmental crystal ball letting you analyze site conditions, climate data, and building orientation, shadows and sun exposure and more, before Revit even opens.” The way Architects used to travel to the site and inspect the site and make use of drone imagery to assess the best way to utilize the site. Now we have Forma available from the comfort of your workspace to gather that data required for you to start planning your design.

In this vlog we look at Forma’s user-interface, with the different options starting from the Home page, gaining access to your HUB and creating a new project.

What is Forma used for: It is a cloud-based design tool built for the early planning phase. It combines environmental intelligence with intuitive modelling. From wind and sun studies to embodied carbon feedback, it allows you to shape smarter, greener buildings right from the start.

With the new AI Extensions allowing you to speed up your pre-conceptual, early-stage, design with a draft rendering powered by AI rendering packages to kick your project off with a bang.
