Hi everyone. Im an arcrchitecture student and fairly new to Revit, particulary with the more complex and conceptual forms i'm trying to create here. Ive been having problems conceptual massing my building and subsequently applying walls and roofs.

As shown in the images, the basic form of the building is three curved masses with a curving roof. I managed to make the mass and began applying walls and roofs to the faces but have been experienceing errors, so there must be somthing wrong my massing form. 

Im really just asking for help with a brief guide on how to form the mass, as im sure my way has caused inacuracies in places. Any help would be much appreciated and more images and views could be provided if needed.

Thanks,

James

The main issue i think is adding profiles to the masses. How can I alter the direction of "add profile" from horizontal to vertiical. Ive been experimenting with altering the work plane but nothing has worked so far.
