Invisible wall for a room

In my 3D build I have a mezzanine that is supported by columns not walls. I have set up the ground - mezzanine in a layer by building a room but would like to know how I can now make the walls for that 'room' invisible so that just the columns are visible.

Thanks for any advice.

Re: open side shed rendering

Thanks very much for the replies. I was a tad terse I suppose.

Hansmex : Yes that is the idea except that the horse part has no sides - only columns at regular intervals to support the roof, and the residence part starts at verandah level.

okh: Thanks - re arena - yes I think the 'furniture object ...

2. At the other end a residence under the same roofline

3. The residence is elevated above ground level by 60cm with a ...
