So today, between watching coverage of Hurricane Gustav and being a Revit Geek, I toyed around with the Swept Blend tool to try and emulate a form that another fellow Revit blogger posted about in the past week (this one and this other one).
It took a lot of time and lots of failed attempts, but I finally got pretty close. It's next to impossible to use Revit to conceptualize these forms from scratch, but it's always a good brain-teaser to try and model a form that seems unachieveable in Revit. Below is a picture of the original form:

And this is what I came up with:

Here's another image to try emulate the original picture above. My attempt was on a squarish pattern, while the original is more rectangular (and the joints have a little curl which is too difficult to model!):
