It has been a while since our last meeting and I hope you will be pleased to hear that we have two excellent presentations coming up next week.
Here is the link to the event:
How BIM Leads from many leading Architectural and Engineering organisations in the UK and globally are focusing on automating their manual, repetitive time-consuming Revit workflow tasks and scheduling them out of business hours”
We
will also share some real-life case studies.

Our second presentation:
Revit Materials, Managed
Materials in Revit are essential for Architects and Engineers and others in AEC - they're used in 3D visualisation, drawing production, environmental analysis and more. Yet, they can also be a pain to create and manage.
Most offices put significant effort into crafting
good-looking materials. But unlike other content types, materials are locked
within models and family files, meaning that work is not fully leveraged. As a
BIM Manager, you may be unsure how to build and distribute a material library
for your office. Architects struggle to reuse good materials from past projects
without bringing clutter along with them.
In this session, we’ll take a whistle-stop tour
of materials in Revit, highlighting some of their lesser-known features buried
in the Revit interface. Then you’ll get a preview of Kinship’s upcoming update
and how it can help your office better organise and make the most of your Revit
materials.
Presenter – Matt Olsen
Matt is a Product Manager at Kinship, joining in
2025 after 11 years as an Associate and BIM Lead at Allies and Morrison
Architects in London. Since joining he’s been working on Kinship's new
materials release, bringing close knowledge of how materials in Revit are used
in Architectural project delivery.
I look forward to seeing you at LRUG
