The Georgia-Pacific Design Studio is a professional tool for architects using AutoDesk® Revit® and compatible applications. With it, you can create wall assemblies "to spec" with Georgia-Pacific Gypsum products – and include other systems from the growing collection of design elements. Export these objects for your existing Revit projects and generate data in CSI MasterSpec® format. For an even more robust experience, install the Revit Plug-In and begin importing your own projects into the Design Studio. Georgia-Pacific Gypsum
