Client
Plot Architects
Project Goals
The firm is producing architectural drawings with BIM for projects in Korea and aims to use this experience to establish company standards suited to local requirements. It also seeks to automate tasks expected to cause significant inefficiencies and build in-house BIM capabilities.
Customer Challenge
Plot Architects is an architectural design practice based in London and Seoul that uses BIM to realize its designs. Beyond its existing BIM-based design approach, the firm needed expert consulting grounded in practical experience and technical skills to improve efficiency, evaluate a wide range of design alternatives, and meet Korean standards.
Solution
Through weekly technical consulting with KCIM’s specialist engineers, the firm gained practical know-how for developing BIM data for Korean projects. Workflows were automated using Dynamo logic and KCIM’s proprietary add-ins, enabling more effective use of Autodesk AutoCAD and Revit in line with the processes of ongoing projects.
Business Outcome
The firm established standardized workflows for BIM projects. Support for building in-house technical capabilities, timely technical assistance, BIM standards development, and practical technical reviews provided an opportunity to strengthen its existing BIM capabilities.
Conclusion
The engagement clarified BIM delivery standards using Autodesk Revit and opened up more opportunities to use BIM with KCIM as a business partner. The firm plans to continue technical exchanges and collaborate on further projects.
