FormIt Primer

PreviousNavigating the SceneNextPart I

Last updated 2 years ago

Content

covers a single workflow tutorial that goes over the basic tools while modeling the famous Farnsworth House step-by-step to help you start modeling today.

Credits

covers some more advanced tools using a pre-modeled fictional architectural project to explore advanced modeling features, analytical tools, and computational tools to help you take FormIt to the next level.

This 2021 Edition of the FormIt Primer is a redesign and expansion upon the first Primer, developed in partnership with .
