Front Elevation 3D model

A Front Elevation 3D Model is a three-dimensional digital or physical representation of the front-facing exterior of a building or structure. Here's a breakdown of what it typically includes and how it can be described:

** Definition:**

The Front Elevation 3D Model displays the vertical view of the front side of a building, showcasing architectural features, materials, finishes, and structural components from a straight-on perspective — but rendered in three dimensions to convey depth and realism.

Key Features Typically Shown:

Main Entrance

Doors, porches, staircases, and surrounding features.

Windows

Placement, size, style (bay windows, sliding, etc.).

Roof Design

Slope, overhang, gables, chimneys, or dormers.

Material Finishes

Textures and materials like brick, wood, glass, stucco, etc.

Architectural Elements

Columns, moldings, trims, facades, or decorative features.

** File Extension:**

.skp (SketchUp Project)

** Description:**

A SketchUp file model is a digital 3D representation of an object, building, interior, or landscape created in SketchUp. It can contain:

3D geometry

Materials and textures

Lighting and shadows

Scenes and views

Layers/Tags for organization

Dynamic components (e.g., doors that open)
