Focal Point, a North American manufacturer of commercial lighting solutions, announced its partnership with BIMsmith to expand its suite of free digital Building Information Modeling (BIM) resources for the global architecture and building design community.

The partnership involves the addition of more than 150 Focal Point lighting product models to BIMsmith Market, a free cloud platform for architects, designers and contractors to discover and download building product data for use in their design projects. BIMsmith Market simplifies the product research and selection process for building professionals, streamlining a cumbersome workflow into a single experience.
