Hi everyone, first time on the forum so correct me if i’m posting this wrong.

 

Is there a way in revit to create curved mesh panels for my facade, as shown on the reference image of SANAA’s building.

You can create it as a thin wall with a mesh material.

So you prefer jumping through hoops to create a curved curtain wall instead of simply draw a curved wall?

Do you know how the mesh material would have holes like the actual mesh?

Make the material with cutout so it has holes in realistic/rendering visual style, and semi transparent with a surface pattern in hidden/ shaded visual style.
