Modelling:-
The model consist of a base petal and a twin tower.
The base petal was modeled using multiple copies of a parametric family. The family made use of an instance based radius parameter to control the overall size and a height parameter to control the loft of the petal.
The twin towers were also modeled using two sets of a different parametric family. The two sets move along the circumference of a circle of adjustable radius.
The family used for a tower is a filleted triangle inscribed within an instance based radius parameter which controls the total size, a fillet tangency parameter that is connected to the length of each side of the triangle, an instance based angular parameter around a type based overall radius parameter. The type based radius parameter makes sure that the locus of the center of each floor would form a perfect helix.
