I am very rusty, probably should not answer, but it is Friday Afternoon, and you may not get a better one today.
The key might be to create a style of curtainwall and apply it to a curtainwall you create on the p-line.
If you do not mind a design comment, the door being off center in your pattern might throw off the symmetry, especially because you have a mullion hitting it off center. Perhaps reconsider the design a bit.

1. Draw the spline in plan.
2. Right Click on the Curtain Wall tool in the tool palette.
3. Select Aplly To -> Referenced Base Curve.
4. Select Spline.
5. Switch to your desired style.
