Largest of Its Kind – Schiavello’s Revit Library for Commercial Furniture

Words by Vaishnavi Nayel Talawadekar

Since its inception in 1966, Schiavello has established itself as a leader in workplace design, creating and servicing ergonomic office environments that support contemporary flexibility, productivity, collaboration and wellbeing requirements. The company’s five-decade-old legacy now extends into a monumental virtual library for commercial furniture –Australia’s largest yet.

As a leading innovator, Schiavello has long been synonymous with forward-thinking solutions in workplace design. In a natural extension of its offerings, the brand has unveiled the largest Revit library for commercial furniture in the country. The new virtual showroom and product category library are accessible via the landing page on Schiavello’s website.

The Revit library is emblematic of Schiavello’s physical-to-digital metamorphosis, mirroring its commitment to make each collaborative experience unique.

Schiavello has always offered services not only as a supplier but also as a key collaborator for designers, architects, builders, project managers and facility managers, consulting closely with project teams during the planning, designing and building of a new office fit-out. Its new online library, built by Australia’s leading BIM content creation specialists, IGS Group, is expected to simplify workplace design for these stakeholders by affording them seamless access to Schiavello’s entire commercial furniture collection at any time, from anywhere. The ease of navigation also translates to easier communication between designers and clients, allowing for smooth sharing and comparisons and faster decision-making.

The Revit library is emblematic of Schiavello’s physical-to-digital metamorphosis, mirroring its commitment to make each collaborative experience unique. By the same token, the company invests sizeably in research and partners with industry experts to enable a fruitful collaboration with clients during the preliminary planning stages of a fit-out. Once a spatial blueprint is in place, it works with a network of designers and business information modelling managers to curate well-appointed furniture and technology solutions, with the virtual library having a significant role to play in this process.

For over half a century, Schiavello has served thousands of brands across the office, hospitality, health, retail, residential and education industries. The Revit library serves as a welcome enabler for more in the years to come.
