Ok, I have created a conceptual mass with a rectangular pattern based curtain panel. I want all of the joints between panels to be very clean so I followed this tutorial on design reform.http://designreform.net/2010/03/revi...-curtain-panelit works great and the surface look soooooooo clean! now..... I have imported the mass into a project file and I want to add mullions and fine tune things, is this even an option?! There are tons of great tutorials about these pattern based conceptual models, but what happens when you need to put your money where your mouth is and develop the project? If anyone has some tips and pointers on taking the conceptual model into a project file and further developing the building it would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

I used this tutorial to create a twisted torso tower, made up of a frame and panels. In my case I created two masses - one slightly offset from the other. I used the outer mass to create a curtain wall of panels using the exact tutorial you linked, and then the other to make a frame that the panels rested upon. In my case I made a custom frame which was actually hollow curtain panels, but I believe you could apply a simple cutain wall to a mass, split the surface and apply mullions the normal way.
Attached a link to hopefully illustrate what I'm blabbering on about

Thanks for the tip! The problem I am facing is my form is hard to offset so I do not think I could make a second mass for the framing system. Any other ideas? Is tere any way to use te curtain panel I created from the design reform tutorial in a curtain system?

Well if it's just the panel - then I guess so, the thing here is going to depend on the shape of the curtain wall. Are you using the same extruded arc from the tutorial, or is it a more complex mass? If you can post a picture it may help
