Autodesk Introduces Forma for Next-Generation Building Design in the Cloud
San Francisco, May 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ – Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSK) has launched the initial features of Autodesk Forma, a new industry cloud designed to streamline workflows across teams involved in designing, building, and operating the built environment. The first set of capabilities focuses on early-stage planning and design, offering automation and AI-driven insights that simplify exploring design concepts, reduce repetitive tasks, and help evaluate environmental factors around a building site. This allows architects to concentrate on creative solutions.
This release marks the beginning of a continuous evolution for the architecture, engineering, construction, and operations industry cloud. New features and capabilities will be regularly added to Forma, ensuring it remains at the forefront of innovation.
“Forma empowers architecture professionals to work iteratively rather than sequentially between planning and detailed design, significantly boosting their productivity,†said Amy Bunszel, Executive Vice President of Architecture, Engineering, and Construction Design Solutions at Autodesk. “From rapidly evaluating numerous factors like sun, wind, noise, and energy usage to offloading computational tasks to the cloud and integrating with Revit, Forma delivers substantial value to our customers.â€
Forma enables users to quickly assess dozens of design options and enhance the desired qualities of a project. It streamlines project setup, offers advanced tools without requiring deep technical expertise, and provides data to effectively communicate design visions to stakeholders, securing their support.
These benefits help architectural firms meet client demands more efficiently and deliver higher-quality results, ultimately increasing their chances of winning bids and driving business growth.

Included in Autodesk Forma’s initial capabilities are:
- **Contextual Modeling**: Simplifies starting a new BIM project by allowing users to create a 3D model of the entire project area within minutes using their own data or purchased datasets directly within Forma.
- **Conceptual Design Tools**: Offers freeform design tools that let users express their creative intent and build complex 3D designs in just minutes.
- **Automation**: Speeds up early-stage design exploration with parametric tools that enable quick development of multiple design variations, saving time for creative work.
- **Machine Learning**: Performs real-time analyses on key environmental factors such as sunlight, wind, and microclimate, eliminating the need for deep technical knowledge and enabling sustainability assessments from the start.
- **Revit Add-in**: Provides seamless file-less synchronization between Forma and Revit, allowing users to detail Forma data in Revit and bring it back for further analysis.
CUBE 3, an architecture, interiors, and planning firm, is transitioning its workflow to digital, cloud-based solutions to future-proof its business. “We pride ourselves on creative, intelligent designs that consider our clients’ needs, budgets, and the environment,†said Tony Fiorillo, Chief Information Officer at CUBE 3. “When we evaluate software solutions, we look for ways to improve communication with clients, increase speed to market, allow flexible teamwork in hybrid environments, and adapt quickly to change. Solutions like Autodesk Construction Cloud and Forma are game-changers, giving us unprecedented access to data that helps us work smarter and meet our clients' needs wherever they are.â€
With Forma, Autodesk now offers a full end-to-end solution for building design—from early-stage planning through to detailed design in Revit, supported by its extensive ecosystem of connected products, including Autodesk Construction Cloud. For existing subscribers, Forma is now included in the Autodesk AEC Collection.
“This is just the beginning,†said Bunszel. “I’m excited about the future as we continue to expand Forma, reimagining BIM to focus on achieving outcomes rather than just modeling, and connecting data, teams, and workflows throughout the entire project lifecycle.â€
