How to Add a Logo & Brand Your Revit Title Block

Sending out architectural drawings without a proper company logo looks highly unprofessional. Furthermore, trying to manually paste a logo onto every single sheet wastes hours of repetitive, non-billable work. Naturally, your branding should be fully automated.

In this quick guide by ALBE Studio, we will solve this common problem. First, we will show you how to edit your Revit Title Block.

Next, we will explain how to add your logo. Finally, we will share advanced tips to fully integrate your corporate identity into your architectural BIM workflows.

Why You Cannot Edit the Logo in the Project

Many beginners try to click on the logo directly on their sheet. However, Revit will not let you delete or change it there. This happens because the title block is a separate Family file (.rfa). Therefore, you must open the Family Editor to make any graphical changes.

How to Change Your Logo: Step-by-Step

Updating your basic branding is actually very straightforward. Just follow these exact steps to update your sheets.

1. Select the Title Block: First, open any sheet in your active project. Next, click once on the title block border to select it.
2. Edit the Family: Look at the top ribbon. Click the Edit Family button. Consequently, Revit will open the title block in a new, separate window.
3. Delete the Old Logo: If there is an old logo or placeholder, select it and press the Delete key.
4. Insert the New Logo: Now, navigate to the top ribbon:
   Insert → Import Panel → Image.
   Browse your computer, select your new company logo, and click Open.
5. Scale and Position: Click to place the image. Use the blue corner grips to scale the logo down. Move it precisely into your designated branding box.

Advanced Corporate Branding in Revit

Simply adding a picture is not enough for premium studios. To truly align with global BIM standards, you must integrate your entire corporate identity. Here are three pro tips:

• Optimize for Printing (JPEG vs. PNG): While PNG files offer transparent backgrounds, they can sometimes cause PDF spooling errors. Therefore, for faster and more reliable printing, use a high-resolution JPEG image if transparency is not strictly required.
• Corporate RGB Colors: Does your studio have a specific brand color? Go to Annotate → Filled Region. Create a new Solid Fill type named after your brand. Then, input your exact corporate RGB color code to use as graphic accents on your sheets.
• Custom Typography: Do not settle for default fonts like Arial. Select your Texts and Labels, click Edit Type, and change the font to your official corporate typeface. This instantly elevates your interior design presentations.

💡 Pro Tip for BIM Managers: Once your logo, corporate colors, and custom fonts are perfect, immediately load the family back into your project. Click Load into Project and Close and select Overwrite the existing version.

The Missing Link: Perfect Presentation

Adding a logo and changing fonts takes time. Furthermore, designing a highly aesthetic, perfectly proportioned title block from scratch requires deep design expertise. If your current title block looks cluttered, it actively hurts your premium reputation.
