Hi everyone, first time revit user here. I'm working on a university project and would like to model these wooden grid-like structures in my design, as you can see in the photos, like Sou Fujimoto and Kengo Kuma.

 

I have attached two photos of my model so far, and the tall grey walls are supposed to represent where these wooden grids will be. I want there to be 'walls' and well as 'ceilings/beams' overhead of these grids, where the grey walls are. As you can see, I have both straight walls as well as a curved/circular wall at the centre, that I want to be made all out of the wooden grids. Any advice on how to model this would be greatly appreciated!Screenshot 2025-07-07 082243.pngScreenshot 2025-07-07 082232.pngc7d419ac6e4149d7321b677492c368b4.jpgosaka-expo-grand-ring.jpg

The "proper" way, would be individual columns and beams, but that would be very time consuming. Using walls, they only way i can think of would be a lot of wall openings. Note, doing it with walls mean everything would be the same thickness, as described by the wall. Curtain wall systems could be an interesting alternative.
