Hi,

In Holland we call this a 'flowerwindow'.
What's the best way to model this in ArchiCad 22?

Thnx.

The front is just a wall with a window in it.
The box sides would be walls also.
The box top and bottom would be slabs.

To add to the walls + roof / slabs: you can opt to have an opening (emtpy window type) in the mail wall or split up the walls depending on if the bay needs to touch the floor (and be added to the zone as part of the total surface area).

With proper set up building material strengths it is relatively easy to get the corner connections correct.

Yes, I forgot to say what to do with the main wall behind.
Thanks.
