Description
Can a digital twin help preserve one of the nation's preeminent Victorian civic structures? Quinn Evans, the 2024 AIA Architecture Firm Award recipient, specializes in the preservation of historic buildings, empowering its clients to harness a wealth of data—from historical records to maintenance and operational insights. Employing historic building information management (HBIM) alongside scan-to-BIM-to-twin workflows, Quinn Evans has pioneered a method to merge past data with current information. Working with the Michigan State Capitol, the firm has applied this approach to more efficiently, effectively, and sustainably manage and maintain the Capitol, including more than nine acres of historic finishes, all while serving the state legislative body and general public. Learn how Quinn Evans is giving the Michigan State Capitol the keys to avoid potential disasters, a proper historical catalog, and unique insights through data and digital twins.
