This is another one of those patterns that tend to keep coming back.. I really like this building in LA. Would be interesting to see how you would handle this type of geometry for documentation... Can it be done in Revit? or is it an .SAT import?

Creating this natively in Revit is pretty straightforward.
This particular building has some double-curvature and blended forms that can be tricky. Building a rig that will create these precisely while remaining flexible would take some...
This build focused on distilling the geometry down to one or a number of solids. This was accomplished by building two rail curves that Revit could essentially sweep. The saddle area was approximated by extending a portion of the upper rail...
This is a first shot at building the x component from the American Cement Bldg natively in Revit. This model has been built up from a 'curtain panel pattern based' family, and is driven by three parameters which modulate its height, front lip...
