How to create a Curved Square Revolved looking Geometry?

I'm trying to create the following geometry:

JsphH11_0-1705979505038.png

Is there a way to create this in a Revit Family, it looks like a Revolve but it is square and revolves always have Absolute Radial  Symmetry. I know I coud just do it flat, I'm just wondering if its possible to represent it with all those curved surfaces. I just want to clear any possibilities, before going to the simple route(Flat Extrusion with a curvy square sketch)

 

Thanks in Advance

You could whittle down a block to that shape.  That is cut a solid with one or more voids.

Absolutely as @barthbradley said 

start with a revolve and then use voids to create the final shape

Create the revolve then cut it with a void square with rounded corners.

it seems like in the corners the profile might be different a little wider.

What's your point?  

 

Just insert the image into a Model Family Template.  Put one in Plan and one in Elevation and Scale them both the same.  Then use Grid Method and Mirroring to reproduce the shape in Revit.
