Why use Cycles as a renderer and Blender as a post-production tool after modeling in Revit?
Which format to use to export your REvit model: .dae / .fbx / .obj / .3ds
Clean up the Revit model
Clean up the Revit materials
Reorganize the Revit model on the Blender layers
Apply the origins to the objects
