Designing the built environment means working across disciplines, software, and stages of development. But when information gets lost between applications, even the most carefully planned projects can become harder to coordinate. **Autodesk Forma aims to make these connections more seamless**, bringing site planning, architectural design, and civil engineering into a more integrated digital environment. With new developments announced at Autodesk University 2026, the platform is expanding its scope. Here’s a look at what’s changing and what these developments could mean for architects, urban planners, and engineers.

Recently, Revit launched its 2027.3 update, introducing new features focused on workflow enhancement and interoperability across the Autodesk environment. The development of the software is also moving further into AI agents and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, two technologies that are beginning to reshape the BIM environment.

Autodesk has released Recap Pro 2027, introducing new tools designed to make reality capture data more structured and easier to integrate into BIM workflows. The update focuses on mesh classification, metadata, cloud collaboration, interoperability and AI-assisted workflows.

Autodesk has released 3ds Max 2027.2, introducing one of the most significant updates to its point-based workflows in recent years. While the release includes only a handful of new features, it brings native support for 3D Gaussian Splats, new point editing tools and render-time instancing, opening new possibilities for architectural visualization and digital content creation.

All recent updates for the professional software and tools you need for modeling, texturing, image-based lighting and rendering of your architectural visualization projects.
