This Pleached Tree Revit family provides a stylised planting asset for site modelling, featuring a structured, rectangular canopy form. This Revit planting family represents a pleached tree, characterised by its formal, architectural training. The asset features a slender, vertical trunk supporting a series of horizontal, stacked branches that form a distinct, flat-faced canopy. The foliage is represented by simplified, semi-transparent geometry that provides a clear visual indication of the tree's profile in both plan and elevation views. This structured form is ideal for formal garden designs, avenue planting, or screening purposes where a clean, geometric silhouette is required to complement contemporary architectural lines and hardscape layouts.
The download is a 512 KB 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, this family is intended for use within site plans and 3D massing models. As a standard planting component, it can be placed directly onto a site topography or floor level. Users should manage the visibility of this family via the Planting category within the Visibility/Graphics overrides. Given its simplified geometric nature, this asset is efficient for large-scale site modelling, ensuring project files remain responsive while providing accurate spatial representation of the intended landscape design throughout the design development stages.

This pleached tree asset is well-suited for high-end residential projects, urban streetscape designs, and structured garden layouts where precise, formal planting is specified. It serves effectively in site plan documentation and 3D visualisations for planning applications. Professionals seeking to represent formal screening, privacy hedges, or architectural tree lines will find this useful for defining exterior spaces. It pairs well with modern hardscaping, paving, and contemporary facade treatments in both residential courtyards and public realm landscape schemes.
