Embodiments may provide a method for creating specific three-dimensional building information models and a construction document set, including elevation views, architectural documents, mechanical systems documents, etc. based on user-selected options from a master three-dimensional model element database. A method is provided for generating a building information model, including: deriving three-dimensional building information model elements, where each of the building information model elements is part of an options set for a building; providing for display of the building information model elements in an options grid of an options configurator application, where each building information model element is presented in a cell of the options grid; associating options rules with the building information model elements; and receiving selection of two or more building information model elements.
