The workflow even leverages artificial intelligence (AI) through NVIDIA’s deep learning super sampling (DLSS) on the Quadro RTX 5000 graphics cards found in the Dell Precision workstations a typical configuration for all staff (learn more in this Dell blog post: Designing From the Home Office).In Quixel Bridge, click Sign In in the top-right of the window. Aiming for Passive House has made so many things about this building and design process unique it’s been all the more important to rely on advanced modeling and representation in Revit and Enscape to accurately portray the character of this unique building and context, including representing the end-users of the building in a real and honest way.” - John Taylor Schaffhauser, AIA, LEED AP BD+C, Project Director, Lake|Flato Architectsĭesign staff often work with Enscape open during the design process and walk clients through the project in a live real-time rendered model or VR headset. Working on Lake|Flato’s first Passive House certified project has been an amazing experience – this is definitely a special project for the firm and one that will hopefully set an example of what’s possible when we work alongside an amazing client to holistically push the boundaries of design performance.

Also worth noting, other than adding the firm and client logos, none of the images in this article have any post-processing (i.e. The visualization workflow is so streamlined and easy to use that 80% of the design staff perform their own work in an activity previously done by specialists.

Enscape, a real-time rendering, and VR tool work with all three of these applications. Lake|Flato uses a variety of design and documentation tools, with the primary applications being Revit, Rhino, and SketchUp.
