Please share your comments on 2 of the following Points to Ponder questions. (Choose 2 of the questions below.)

What are the principal advantages of creating a conceptual design model using masses before diving into the detailed design and building element modeling?

By using masses, you can create large-scale unconventional designs for buildings instead of going floor by floor and tweaking the shell to create your desired design. There is also no way to create torsion walls / sloped walls.

Can you think of any examples of a real building around the world that most likely was created by exploring the form using conceptual mass models?
