Can I record initial design intent for planting in Revit?

Short Answer

Use the Concept Planting tools in CS ArtisanRV to create and document early-stage planting proposals before detailed plant species, mixes, or specification information have been finalised. Concept Planting allows landscape professionals to record design intent using specimens, hedges, avenues, woodlands, and planting beds, while capturing descriptions, quantities, notes, and location information that can later be developed into detailed planting designs.

This approach enables planting layouts and schedules to be incorporated into the Revit model from the earliest project stages, supporting design development and stakeholder communication before detailed planting selections are confirmed.

Details

The purpose of the  Concept Planting tools in CS ArtisanRV is to enable landscape professionals to create early phase design content for planting including single plants (specimens or clumps), linear planting (hedges and avenues) and areas (woodlands and planting beds). The tools provide a quick graphical representation in plan view and underlying infomation based on user-defined descriptions, location, notes and quantities.

Can I edit tags for early-phase planting in the model?

 

Short Answer

Yes. CS ArtisanRV provides a range of Tagging Options for Concept Planting that can be defined when components are initially placed and modified at any time afterwards. This allows landscape professionals to control how Concept Planting content is labelled and presented throughout the design process, ensuring that tags accurately reflect evolving design intent and project requirements.

Tagging settings can be updated for individual items or groups of Concept Planting components using the Edit Concept Planting tools.
