I am hoping to apply a circular reveal pattern to the face of a wall, can this be done using reveals?

I have a wall with a black granite facing that I want "inscribed" with large partially overlapping circles.....

Suggestions are welcomed.

Thanks,

You've got two options here: if the pattern repeats, consider using a wall-hosted family that has a void in it to cut the wall. The void in the family will need to cut the host (wall) in the family; use the Cut Geometry tool for that.

If it's a one-off, you can use an in-place family (Modeling > Create > Walls > name of family) with a void in it to create what you want.

Reveals are linear in nature and I don't think they will do what you want.

Cheers
