About Building Maker

Building Maker is a set of tools that draws a closer association between massing studies and building elements.

It takes any overall building form described conceptually and maps it to real-world building elements (such as roofs, curtain walls, floors, and walls). Building Maker allows for a cumulative understanding of the relationship between expressive and built form as the design develops.

You can use Building Maker tools to create building elements from masses.

In this example, a mass surface becomes a curtain wall.

In this example, a mass floor is created at each level of the mass, and the mass floors are converted to floors..
