Turn drawings, PDFs, CAD files or sketches into a coordinated Revit model your project team can work with. We support architecture, engineering and construction firms across the USA, Canada and Europe.
Most architectural BIM problems aren’t modeling problems. They’re coordination problems. A wall gets modeled correctly in isolation, then it turns out a duct run was already routed through it. Nobody catches it until the RFI shows up on site. That’s the gap our architectural BIM modeling services close: we build your model against the same coordinate system as your structural and MEP work, so clashes get caught on screen instead of at the job site.
Our architectural BIM modeling team works in Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD and BIM 360, and builds to whatever LOD your project phase actually needs. A feasibility study doesn’t need LOD 400 detail, and a fabrication package can’t run on LOD 100. Scoping this correctly up front is most of what keeps a BIM modeling engagement on budget.
Designs Mosaic is based in Mumbai, India, and supports architectural BIM work for clients across the USA, Canada and Europe. Our team works with project-specific requirements, applicable design standards, client BIM guidelines and agreed modeling protocols.
Convert 2D drawings, PDFs, CAD files or sketches into coordinated architectural Revit models.
Review the architectural model against structural and MEP information so coordination issues can be identified earlier.
Bring existing 2D project information into a structured Revit or BIM workflow for design development, documentation and coordination.
Develop custom Revit families and parametric objects where the project or client standards require them.
Generate plans, elevations, sections, schedules and other agreed outputs from the architectural model.
Develop architectural BIM models to the Level of Development required for the project stage and intended model use.
Update the model as approved design information changes and regenerate agreed model-based outputs where required.
Clash detection, shop drawing extraction and other specialist BIM services can be scoped separately when the project needs them.
LOD (Level of Development) describes how much detail and reliability a model element carries at a given stage of an architectural BIM project. Getting this wrong in either direction costs money: modeling to LOD 400 during schematic design burns budget on detail that will change anyway, and trying to pull fabrication drawings from an LOD 200 model produces drawings nobody can actually build from.
| LOD | What it means | When you need it |
| 100 | Conceptual massing and early-stage information | Feasibility and early concept |
| 200 | Approximate geometry and generic model elements | Design development |
| 300 | Defined geometry and model information | Construction documentation |
| 350 | LOD 300 plus interfaces with adjacent systems | Multidisciplinary coordination |
| 400 | Detailed information for fabrication or installation where required | Shop drawing and fabrication support |
| 500 | Field-verified as-built information | Existing conditions and future asset use |
If you’re not sure what LOD your architectural BIM project needs, that’s a normal question to bring to the first call. Most projects mix LODs across disciplines anyway.
Scope call. We review your drawings, PDFs, CAD files or other project inputs, confirm the LOD required by phase, and agree the milestones and expected deliverables.
Our Revit team builds the architectural model. On multi-week projects, a coordinator runs weekly check-ins so you're not waiting until delivery to see progress or flag a change.
Where required, the architectural model is reviewed against structural and MEP models. Coordination issues are logged and reviewed before delivery so the project team can address them earlier.
We issue the agreed model files and related outputs in the formats defined for the project. If the design changes later, the model can be updated and agreed drawings or extracts regenerated from the revised model.
In the form of design validation, coordination, and changes, DM provides the following services:
Architectural BIM models can be scoped from LOD 100 through LOD 500 depending on the project stage, intended model use and client requirements.
Where required, architectural models can be reviewed alongside structural and MEP information so the model fits into the wider project coordination process.
Our BIM team works from India while supporting clients across the USA, Canada and Europe, with project requirements and review workflows agreed at the start.
Architectural BIM work can connect with Revit services, BIM coordination, clash detection, family creation and other related services when the project needs additional support.
There is no useful BIM coordination engagement if the project team is unclear about what it receives at the end.
Depending on your scope, our BIM coordination services can include:
Design coordination and visualization from concept through construction documents.
Layouts and finishes can be coordinated within the same wider model environment instead of being developed in isolation from the building shell.
The architectural model can be reviewed alongside structural and MEP information where multidisciplinary coordination is required.
The model can support documentation, quantity information, coordination and other agreed construction-stage uses based on the project scope.
Designs Mosaic supports residential, commercial and institutional building requirements, with wider company experience also spanning infrastructure and transit projects. Our team works with clients across the USA, Canada and Europe.
Union on 24th in Austin, Texas is one of the U.S. projects featured in the Designs Mosaic portfolio. The project page provides the published project scope and details.
Anywhere from LOD 100 (conceptual massing) to LOD 500 (as-built), scoped to match your project phase. See the LOD table above.
The delivery format is agreed during scoping based on the project requirements and your downstream workflow. If your team needs a specific Revit, CAD or exchange format, include that requirement with the project brief.
Yes. PDF drawings, CAD files, sketches and other approved project information can be used as inputs for developing an architectural BIM or Revit model.
Pricing depends on project scope, model complexity, required LOD, available inputs and expected deliverables. We review the project information before preparing a quotation.
Yes. Designs Mosaic is based in India and supports architectural BIM requirements for clients and projects across the USA, as well as Canada and Europe.
Where model updates and drawing extraction are included in the scope, approved design changes can be incorporated into the model and the related outputs updated from the revised information.
Send over your drawings, PDFs, CAD files or even a rough sketch and we’ll review the required LOD, project inputs and expected deliverables. For projects in the USA, Canada and Europe, we work with the project-specific documentation and BIM requirements agreed for the assignment.
