Hi,I was wondering if it is possible to create something like the Archigram "Mound" Project in Revit 2014. I can make building pads to topograhy so that the building can be "trenched", however, it cannot make a topographic-like hill as a roof cover. Is it possible to do this?

As a 'roof' object you can't create a contoured surface. Only planar surfaces.

Sometimes I make an 'earth floor' which is just floor made out grass or earth material (you could even layer them). It's not accurate in sections, but if you're attempting to render something like this it can be useful. Just modify sub-elements of the floor and elevate them where they need to be. The reason for using a floor is because a building pad can't cut it (a shaft still can).
