Rooms & layout
+
Pick two rooms that sit side by side and merge them into one, under a single roof. Merge again to add a third.
Turns any open area inside the outline (not yet a room) into a real room, so the roof & walls extend over it.
Roof
Main roof
Second roof (wing)
Reverse the slope (low front β high back) via High side, or β³ to rotate 90Β°. Overhang expands/contracts the roof past the walls. Two roofs gives the main block & wing separate slopes (assign rooms in the Roof column above).
Project
Start from a base β one open shell you then divide into rooms.
Replaces the current design with an empty shell of that shape, under one roof. Divide it up with the wall tools or β+ Add roomβ.

Walls derive automatically β exterior 400 mm, interior 200 mm. Drag a room in the plan to move it. Place doors & windows from their tabs, then click a wall in the plan below.
Walls
Walls come from your rooms (exterior 400 mm, interior 200 mm). Draw extra walls, delete any wall, or change thickness.
Remove stubs deletes drawn walls shorter than the chosen length, and any wall drawn twice. Walls that come from rooms are never touched.
Click a wall in the plan below to select it. In draw mode, click two points (snaps to the grid set under the plan). In Erase mode you can drag across several walls to remove them in one sweep.
Draw walls that enclose a space and it becomes a room automatically β named Room n, renameable and resizable in the Rooms tab.

Straw-panel breakdown
Every wall divided into pressed-straw panels for maximum resistance (Montenegro method): full-height panels β€ 1.25 m with joints on the grid; each opening split into side panels + lintel + sill. Panels are numbered (EcoCocon-style): P standard Β· B braced Β· L window/door lintel Β· S sill, and coloured by wall orientation. See the plan for panel codes + wall numbers (A-0.n).
Turn on Panel seams (top bar) to see the divisions drawn on the 3D model. Roof (RP) & gable (GP) panels come from the roof stage. A design aid β confirm against final fabrication drawings.
