Turn floor plans into 3D for Fun

Does anyone have a spare floor plan with elevations that I can turn to 3D for fun? I’ll post pictures.

I think I’ma get my boy involved (9YOA). He’s really interested in drawing in 3D.

I bet you could find something with a Google search. Look for Sears houses, for example.

archidaily is a great source of quality architecture with good images , plans, elevations and sections… I often built cottages from them. eg cottage

PS… the images are generally of very high resolution, just save them separately as needed to your PC…

Here’s a good staring point if anyone wants to join me(going off the dimensions of course).
The textures are super high rez because I was hoping to use large image splitter, alas it doesn’t work with 2017. :frowning: Can someone help me out? If you do, please make sure to save as 2017. :3


Also, here are the PDFs combined and rotated:

Tell me where I’m wrong @medeek
(BTW I’m not exactly a framer so have mercy on me, this is all guess work based on limited experience and partial plans)

As you command.


@medeek Can you tell me what is wrong with these windows and how they could be remedied?
Also, I’m having a hard time interpreting what should be done with the kitchen wall, and these vaulted ceilings:

As far as I can tell, the first floor is done. All that’s left is the ceiling and the roof.

Rafters, but I’m in over my head honestly. It’s too complicated for me. I give up

Just tried to orbit your screenshot from above to quickly check the roof, :astonished::woozy_face:

Well, as I said, I’m not a framer. :confused:

For not being a framer you are probably 95% there if you ask me, sorry I’ve had my head buried for the last few days and have not had a chance to really look at the model yet.

No worries, this has been like a game to me. One I’m not very good at.
