Summary

This chapter covered a lot of enhancements that architects and designers can add to a building’s exterior. Although we did not have time to cover all of the tools for exterior modeling, we were able to cover some valuable tools that you may not know about. And, of course, we finally introduced you to the Extension Warehouse! Your workflow will take off when you find hidden gems you never thought possible. Keep exploring each chapter where we mention our favorites, and hopefully, you will learn something new to add to your repertoire. Extensions are amazing for reducing billable hours that clients do not want to pay for.

In the next chapter, we move from commercial exteriors to residential interiors. Using a beautifully crafted living room, you will continue learning to use an imported AutoCAD drawing for 3D modeling, this time to create elevations and details. You will also learn best practices for navigating and using 3D Warehouse!
