Hello guys and gals,

I'm a couple months into switching to Revit from cad.  For the most part it's been a pretty smooth transition.  I've taken a few courses offered from Autdesk for new Revit users in Nashville which really helped.  I have a question about modeling to you more advanced users with much more experience than me in Revit.  What would be your technique to modeling an entrance to the building in the attached picture?  It's a building that will be restored and although the whole entrance will change I'm wanting to create a as-is model for the client also.  I've gotten basically the whole exterior shell modeled so far where the brick is. I'm just wondering what the best method would be to model the storefront / entrance area with all of the different textures.  I'm deciding if I should try to build a wall style or just piece mill it in a bunch of different objects or if there is an easier way I'm totally unaware of?.  I'm currently using Revit 2014.  Thanks for any advice.

West
