About this asset

This collection of twenty 2D tree elevations is a Revit family set designed for clean, schematic landscape documentation. The set contains twenty distinct tree and shrub silhouettes rendered in a stylized, high-contrast graphic format. These elevations feature simplified, geometric canopy shapes ranging from conical and spherical to irregular and weeping forms, each supported by a standard trunk representation. The visual style relies on flat green fills with dark green shadow zones to indicate depth and volume, ensuring clear legibility when placed over site plans or building sections. These assets are lightweight and specifically intended for architectural drawing sets where a clear, diagrammatic representation of greenery is required.

The download is a 4 MB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

In Revit, these 2D families are typically loaded into a project and placed directly into elevation or section views. Because they are face-based or standard 2D symbols, they maintain consistent line weights and fill patterns regardless of the project scale. Users can easily toggle these symbols on or off using visibility graphics settings, making them efficient for quick site diagramming without the performance overhead associated with complex 3D foliage models.

These tree elevations are indispensable for landscape architects, urban designers, and general practice architects working on site planning and presentation drawings. They are ideal for early-stage design concepts, planning applications, and final construction documentation where 2D graphic clarity is prioritised over realistic rendering. Professionals frequently use these to populate site boundaries, define streetscapes, or provide scale context for building facades. They pair well with standard site plan annotation symbols and can be used across residential, commercial, and public park developments.
