Well with complex wall/window

[Antonio Lopes]

Hello everyone, first of all let me introduce myself! I am an architecture student from Portugal.


i need some help, can anyone tell me how can i do windows like the ones in the elevation i attached?

And how can i do openings like that ones in the walls?

Is that possible?

I made those with lines on elevation and made the rest on phothoshop, but since its not done in archicad i cant do renders cause i dont have the windows like that.

I thank you in advance for all the help, i hope someone can lead me in the right path on how to do that.

Hi. I tried answering your question previously but somehow didn't publish my post, lol.

Anyway, to cut out the windows on the right I would use the roof slab tool and then cut away all the geometry.

To make openings in vertical: try positioning columns inside the walls, bending them to your need. Once you put the colums on a hidden layer, the walls will retain the opening. Combine it with simple hole openings and it shouldn't be too difficult!.

Remember to group walls and colums prior to hiding the columns!

Hope this helps
