Unified Finishing Tool: Decoupling Finishes from Structure

Gerard Santos
Booster

The "Composite" system is great but leads to an "Attribute Explosion." Creating a new composite for every single material variation is inefficient. We need a Finishing Tool (Skin) to apply coatings independently.

 

Key Requirements:

  • Wall, Slab, and Roof Finishes: A single tool to "skin" structural elements.

  • Independent Logic: Apply different tiles or paint to each face of a wall without changing the core structure.

  • Zone-Based Integration: Finishes should be linked to Zones, allowing them to update automatically if a room boundary moves.

  • Accurate Quantities: Net area calculations that automatically deduct openings (doors/windows) and small wall-mounted objects.

Why it matters: This would keep the attribute list clean and allow architects to change finishes in the late design stages without rebuilding the structural core of the model.
