From there, I laid down a basic symmetrical 2D ground plan in Rhino, when I was satisfied with this very simple layout, I added some asymmetrical flourishes to create a more engaging overall design, and then went to 3D. My bread and butter for this structure where some basic box shapes, and an arch-shape, which I constructed and then copy-pasted everywhere to use for everything.
