I want to tile images while rendering in Revit seamlessly. I have photos of material and I want to apply them to objects like couches and have them tile seamlessly.

It's very difficult to get a material to tile seamlessly.  You have to do the 'MC Escher trick' of having the edges on one side interlock with the edges of the other.

Sometimes you need to do some editing of an image to do this.  You can't have a sharp trnasition edge to edge in either direction.  If your image is shaded like that, look for a better, more uniform image if you can.  Sometimes you have to have a bigger sample.  A 10'x 10' image rater than a 2' x 2' ... or similar. 

This is your problem to correct, the Revit software will not do it for you.
