Lorin Industries now offers Building Information Modeling (BIM) files for its captivating anodized aluminum colors and finishes, which are available for direct download off of its website. This new feature of Lorin’s website empowers architects, engineers, and contractors to directly access BIM files that enable streamlined and collaborative design and build processes. For those architectural firms that use RIB (SpecLink) you can spec Lorin’s products directly from RIB.
The benefits of anodized aluminum for architectural applications are far ranging. Anodized aluminum provides a durable solution that does not chip, flake, or peel. This durability combines with natural beauty to bring superior, long-lasting aesthetics to products ranging from cladding and roofing systems to interior panels, decorative applications, and countless other possibilities. The colors and finishes of Lorin’s anodized aluminum also contribute to its stunning appearance, as these colors and finishes combine to create an unrivaled visual symphony that brings an architectural project to life.
Architects, engineers, and contractors looking to integrate the refined elegance of Lorin’s anodized aluminum into their next project can easily visualize its impact on their projects through using BIM. To streamline this process, Lorin now offers BIM files for its finishes directly on its website. BIM is notable for enabling a collaborative approach to design and build, representing both the functional systems, such as electrical and HVAC systems, and the aesthetic aspects of a project, such as roofs, and walls. Downloading BIM files for Lorin’s finishes will allow professionals to work collaboratively to bring the material’s captivating dances of light, shadows, and reflections to transform their vision for their next architectural project.
