Spatial relationship fields in Layer connect items across (Revit) model-based categories using their physical location in the model.

In this video, you will learn how spatial relationships link furniture, rooms, doors, and other model elements automatically based on where they exist in the Revit model. The video demonstrates how to create spatial relationship fields, select compatible model categories, and apply optional filtering criteria to refine results.

You will see how spatial relationships work in both directions, allowing you to view furniture inside a room or identify which rooms a door or window connects. The lesson also covers exposing related data through lookup fields and shows how spatial relationships can reference nested data, such as pulling product cut sheets through furniture instances tied to rooms.

This video highlights how spatial relationships enable deeper, model-driven coordination and unlock powerful reporting workflows inside Layer.
