Re: old home modelling tips
Being a bit of an old hand using SH3D, I generally take a double approach:
- For general purpose use, I tend to make a design where everything is approximately correct; this one I use for interior decorating, to get a feel for furniture sizes and placement, etc. If I want to know whether a specific couch, paint colour or library looks good in my room, or to help me decide whether to buy 2 or 3 library cabinets, it doesn't really matter whether my room is 6.30x5.80 meters or 6.20x5.85 meters.
- For production purposes, I prefer to make a detailed design, e.g. just one wall and part of its side walls, which I try to make as exact as possible, so that indeed it can be used to install a kitchen or bath room. That way I can decide whether the last cabinet of 60 cms still fits, or should I buy 50 cms and use a 9 cm panel to fill the gap.
