Constructing a 'screen'

[Anonymous]

I'm having a bit of difficulty in working something out. Basically, I have a facade that extrudes from the main building fabric to form a screen. What I can't work out is how to make this 'wall screen'

I've attached a sketch to show what I mean. Any tips on how to achieve this is much welcomed.

Thanks.

Use a wall with a couple of empty openings.

Or, 4 walls, or 3 walls, 1 beam, or 3 columns 1 beam.
Or a combination of all 3 elements. How it represents in 2D
will influence your decision. Experiment

Thanks guys.

In particular, I'd like to know how if the outer screen was to be a pitched one, how I'd do that. A gabled wall essentially.
