Floor Plan Extruding
Due: May 6th by Midnight
Please comment your name, an emoji or just saying 'Hey' so I know you have seen the page and are aware of expectations.
In this activity, students will learn the correct processes for taking an existing floor plan and extruding a structure from it.
Students will have the opportunity to learn how to extrude walls, create door and window openings, draw doors and even create a roof design as well as use materials and components effectively.
You are going to have to do some research on your own on things like sizing for items, creating certain blocks and components, or even downloading from the 3d warehouse.
AVERAGE WALL HEIGHT FOR YOUR HOUSE- 8ft (unless you plan on having a large door for example, increase your wall height by 2ft increments.)
I have provided the floor plan I would like you to use below entitled "floorplan.jpg". You may use this example to complete your home or you are welcome to find your own online if you wish to challenge yourself. Bonus marks will be given to those to use a different and more complex floorplan!
Please be mindful that you are responsible for furnishing the interior of the house (Furniture, appliances, flooring, colours, etc.) as well as designing the exterior (brick, siding, roofing, etc).
Finally, at the bottom of the screen you will find 3 tutorial videos, please watch them. As well, the floorplan I provided is the same one the person in the video uses so there shouldn't be any excuses as to why you couldn't get the beginning process to work.
