Graphics - Revit

First of all, following a tutorial made for the 2009 version of Revit was more difficult than I had originally thought. I had such a hard time following it, and it took so much longer than I had hoped. However, I did get the mass where it was supposed to be, albeit at a much later time.
Doesn't look bad, and at least I know how to make walls in Revit.



Next, I did a conceptual massing model in Revit by following a tutorial from Autodesk. A nice way to get my feet wet, and it is possible that this technique will help in the fall.


Since I didn't have a context model, I just used the one provided in the tutorial that was imported from Google Earth.


So, with the building mass' facade looking out into the water, I placed a pattern on it to help develop a panel for the facade.


Looks pretty good, but since I'm following a tutorial, it needs more work, and called for some nested panels. Fun.

With the new panel created with some new parameters, I was able to apply it to the model. Instead of making all of the panels divided, the parameters allowed me to pick which panels I wished to divide into the newly created nested panel.

Adds a depth of complexity to the model, giving it a finished look (at least on the facade), concluding my work in Revit for now.
