All-in-One Kitchen Unit 2.0

As on all our All-in-One Families we have also received massive feedback on our All-in-One Kitchen Family that was published on 19th January this year. The Feedback has been a very positive one and has given us a very clear picture of what Revit Users all over the World clearly wanted. A very small percentage of the feedback was skeptical regarding the massive functionality as well as performance.

As we develop this special advanced Families for all the Revit Users out there, we have had a very close look at all these feedbacks and comments and we took them really serious ... the result is the All-in-One Kitchen Unit 2.0.


What's NEW at Version 2.0 ?

Performance
One of the critical issues with the first Version was the massive initial loading time of 1:55 minutes. In Version 2.0 we have optimized the formulas and we have now separated the 20 preset Types in a catalog file that alows you to just load those Types that you really need for your Project. The initial loading time is now up to 28x faster and takes just about 4 seconds !!

Legs - Kick Plate
Every Unit can now been setup for either a Kick Plate or with Legs. And that isn't all ... as you can have full control over the Legs with just one Parameter. Yes - The Kitchen Unit allows now to control the visibility of every single Leg with just one Parameter. Additional the Shape as well as Dimension of the Legs can be fully controlled. In case that you would like to use the Kick Plate, it allows you now to setup a separate Material.

Backsplash
What a kitchen would be without Backsplash ? If you would like Tiles or colored Glass, the fully parametric Backsplash gives you any possibility as it has it's own Material Parameter. Of course you can control the Visibility as well as the Hight of the Backsplash - that's obvious, or ?

Corner Unit
One of the most asked features ...
It took us quite a while (and a few hours evaluating various IKEA Kitchen Types) to find a really optimized way to still use the original Kitchen unit without having any Element double, just controlled with parameters

Wall hung - Corner Unit
If there is a normal Corner Unit, a corner Wall unit is obviously a must have ...

It is still the same Kitchen Unit, just changing a few Parameters ... and you have a fully adjustable Wall hung Corner Unit.

Symbol Lines - Elevation & Plan
View 
The Kitchen unit shouldn't just be gorgeous in a 3D view, or ?
Just look at it with an elevation view or an plan view and get a ready Kitchen Plan with all Symbol Lines in Elevation as well as Plan view.
As our customers come from all over the world - we have taken care about localization as well - Yes, you can even control the direction of the Symbol Lines as they are varying in different countries ... Arrow from or to Hinge.

And still all amazing Benefits you might know from the previous Version ... 
... and if you haven't yet discovered the countless adjustment opportunities this All-in-One advanced parametric Kitchen Unit Revit Family offers to you - No Problem at all ... just have a look on our All-in-One Kitchen Unit Revit Content Page and you will see all the possible setup configurations ... and don't forget ... it's all about parametric functionality, and there are no double Elements that just control the Visibility as you can see it from so many other Families out there ...
This All-in-One Kitchen Unit is a genuine Advanced Parametric Revit Family !!
