Classic exterior window crosshead header Revit family, designed with a profiled projecting cornice and a flat rectangular fascia for facade trim detailing. The profile features an ornamental upper cornice cap with chamfered hip ends and an undercut drip line, set directly atop a vertical rectangular fascia board. Rendered in a clean monochrome line-drawing style, the geometry provides crisp exterior shadows and well-defined transitions against exterior cladding or masonry. The crosshead functions as an architectural entablature over exterior fenestration, providing horizontal emphasis and traditional lintel proportioning. Its clean perimeter returns wrap cleanly around the upper corners, ensuring accurate dimensional definition across elevation views and three-dimensional model representations without excessive polygon density.
The download is a 102 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.
Load the.rfa family directly into your Revit project environment to detail facade elevations and window surrounds. Place the component aligned with the window rough opening or structural masonry opening, adjusting horizontal offsets to ensure symmetric projection beyond the window jamb casings. Material parameters can be mapped to project standard exterior finishes, such as painted timber, polyurethane composite, or cast stone trim.
This exterior decorative moulding is ideal for residential architectural styles including Colonial, Georgian, Greek Revival, and traditional suburban townhouses. Pair this crosshead with exterior window casings, fluted pilasters, or keystone accents to assemble coordinated exterior window and door surrounds. It delivers realistic shadow lines for exterior elevations, BIM documentation sets, and exterior visualization renders across detached housing and multi-family residential developments.
