Configurator for fully parametric Revit families
Empower designers to generate fully parametric Revit families based on your real product options - materials, joints, and door types.
Overview
Parametric Configurator for Custom Wall & Door Systems
We developed a Revit-integrated configurator that allows architects and designers to build tailored Revit families for office partition systems. Users can select dimensions, materials, connection types, door styles, and more — with the output being native Revit families ready for immediate use in projects.

Problem
Architects and designers often struggle to get accurate Revit content for partition systems — generic models lack detail, and manufacturers rarely provide native parametric families. As a result, products are either modeled incorrectly or replaced with alternatives, leading to lost deals and coordination issues.
Solution
The solution allows users to define key system parameters — wall height, thickness, panel infill, frame style, door type, handle position, and connection type. The system then dynamically builds Revit families that match selected configurations and comply with manufacturer standards. The output is ready-to-use BIM content that architects can place directly into their models.
Final solution includes:
- Template families updating logic from the cloud database
- User-friendly interface with the ability to preview a family look during the configuration process
- Mechanism to configure ready-to-use families
Technologies used
Microsoft Azure
.NET Core
C#
Revit API
Process
Product logic definition
Worked with the manufacturer’s engineering and sales team to formalize all product options, configurations, and business rules.
Design
Built a user-friendly configuration interface where users can select options visually and generate content.
Family generation engine
Developed the logic that translates user input into valid Revit families with correct constraints, materials, and naming.
Testing
Tested generated content in real architectural models to ensure usability, category compliance, and visual accuracy.
Results
