Create a room

Building up a room

First of all, create a wall in top view with Wall tool under the AEC Extended under command panel, but before that, make sure the Grid Points has been ticked under the Grid and Snap Settings, as it assure the wall goes straight and is easier to see the joint part with grid point on. Adjust the shape of the wall by vertex, then a basic wall is done.

Add a window

Create a window with Casement tool under the Windows under Command Panel with the following parameters. Set the casement to “ Two”, so that there are two window glasses, set Open value to 0%, meaning the window is closed while 100% means window is entirely open. The reason why I chose this type of window is because it looks more like the one from 50’s.

Add a door

Create a Pivot under Doors. To be honest, door creation is the difficult part, as I got problem with having the door embedded into the wall, so when I tried to open the door, I could still see the wall in it. Therefore, as finally I ended up with having the following settings, then the door worked well.

Add the floor

Here the floor was added by using line tool; follow the edge of the wall to draw the line and Close Spline at the end. Again, make sure the Snaps Toggle is on, so that the line will be drawn straight, which also makes it easier to join two points together. Convert the line to Editable Poly, then the floor with a specific outline has been created. Clone it to have the roof, due to exactly the same shape between floor and roof.

Add curtain

The curtain is basically done with loft method. Start with create three different curves with Point Curve tool under NURBS Curves as shown below, and then click on the button “NURBS Creation Toolbox” under NURBS Curves, a small window pops up, under this window, click the button “Create U loft curves” at the right bottom, then a basic window outline is formed, adjust the shape again by Point. Afterwards, add a pole (for hanging the curtain) on the top of the window by creating a cylinder.

 

Mirror the existing curtain to have other side one now.
