I'm going to point to a few existing questions, and then make a few additional comments.
This thread talks about our plans to make measures to produce DOE reference buildings.
Ideally in most cases you will feed in a the geometry from your current design, but if you did want to use the reference building envelope, there are a few options for scaling it. I think the most straight forward approach would be to adjust the thermal zone multipliers.
If you do physically want to stretch the reference building geometry (or any model) you can adapt the process shown on this post that shows a plugin and a measure based approach to increase the floor to floor height of a model. Same logic will work on x and y axis as well.
