Pool house

Hello:

Here's another example of what you can do with SH3D.

its a bit a pitty that pool level and ground level look so equal. (maybe its a limitation of the program to not offer negative elevations . but i am not deep enough into it right now.)

Ótimo!

I would like to make a pool in my Sweethome3D that seems like an actual pool. Do you know when (if they do) Sweethome3D will create a Swimming Pool as furniture? If not, do you know anywhere that i can import a 3D swimming pool to my home?

Kayla,

Try Sketchup Warehouse to search for swimming pools.
Read this manual (PDF) for a solution to correctly incorporate it into your design.

Thanks...
And sorry I asked more than once, I saw that you weren't online and I was hoping somebody else might have answered.

Hans,
i like this one, well done!

But, [:D] , the pools water level could have looked a little bit different:



costs just a few minutes, c'mon - you know that kindof stuff [;)]

macfrog,

Please, check the date that picture was posted...
It's from way before I figured out all the tricks I've written about since. So you see, I have (had) the same learning curve as everybody.

Example? The design was made shortly after or before textures could be applied to boxes. So I made a box with a wooden texture and then repeated it 200 times to form the wooden "envelope" that forms floor, wall and ceiling.

I hadn't thought of stacking "layers" yet in those days, that's why the pool is at the same level as the rest.

Yes, sorry. i didn't look at the date. the thread looked quite recent
