Green Roofs

Two of the four roofs are green roofs for this project. I did a great deal of research to figure out if Revit Architecture 2012 had any particular features that would help in implementing a green roof, however I didn't find any particularly helpful sources. I chose to use several different foliage families on the roofs to display the idea of there being a green roof. I also created paths and railings on the third floor green roof, as it is a full public access type. The second floor green roof does not have any public access, therefore it is more free standing. Between finding families to populate the green space on the roofs, creating the topography and the paving surfaces this process took about two hours.
