Building shape object for surrounding buildings

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 09:57:23 GMT

Hi!

I'm about to do a birds-eye render of my building but I need to add some of the surrounding buildings as well. I have a siteplan in dwg-format already merged into the project with the shape of the other buildings.
Is there an object I can use to make the shapes of the other buildings. They do not need to have windows or any detailing but some of the buildings have different height within that building.
What do people use? Should I just use slabs, stack them on top of each other and then group them?

Slabs are a good starting point, and you can stack them then convert to Morphs later if you want to delete common edges, add detail or push and pull faces.

Or you can use this object: https://bimcomponents.com/GSM/Details/8318 or House object inside you library.

Ah, that's exactly the kind of object I was looking for. Thanks!
