Affordable House Sketches

For this part of the project I drew a few rough sketches of the homes I proposed to my client.  This is the final sketch that my client chose.  This helped me see what kinds of homes people like and what kinds of homes people don't like which can help me save time and money in the future.

3. From this project i learned how to place items built in Revit into other Revit drawings.  This is important because now I can combine projects to make ones.
