Homes

What are Homes?​

In Innobrix the term refers to the homes within a plan.

Configurables and Models are often a part of a Home but are not the same. It is possible to have Homes in a plan without a linked Configurable or Model. In that case you recognize the Home by the Mass or Mass Volume shown in the plan. Without a linked Configurable, Model, or Mass Volume, a Home is essentially an empty shell with a few properties. Many of these properties are shown directly in the Viewer.

Creating a Home​

You can create a Home in two ways.

  1. Drag a Configurable, Model, Home Type, or Mass volume from their tabs in the Content Browser onto the parcel map in the 3D scene. This creates a Home and links it to the chosen Configurable or Mass Volume. When you choose a Home Type, the Home is also pre-filled with properties.

Create Home

  1. Use Alt + E to create an empty Home. You must link a suitable Configurable, Model, or Mass Volume to use it.

You can place multiple Homes from one configurable on a parcel map, allowing an entire neighborhood from one Configurable. (This is where the type approach of Innobrix comes in.) All placed Homes appear in the Scene hierarchy.

Properties of a Home​

Home properties are set per Home and can vary widely.

Position​

Adjust the Home position visually using the gizmo (hotkey G). You can also enter values for the X, Y, and/or Z axes.

Move Home

Rotation​

Adjust rotation (degrees) visually using the gizmo (hotkey R). You can also enter values for the Y axis.

Rotate Home

Name​

The Name of a Home. When a Home is created from a Configurable, it inherits the Configurable�s name.

Status​

Set the Home status to one of four options:

  • Available

  • Under Offer

  • Sold

  • Not available

The status is shown in the Home flyout when clicked.

Innobrix construction number​

The Innobrix construction number of a Home. Prominently used when the 2D plot selector is implemented and also used for Revit import.

Description​

Description of a Home.

Living area​

Living area (m2) of a Home. (Optional)

Lot area​

Lot area (m2) of a Home. (Optional)

Price​

Base price of the Home. In the Viewer the price is calculated on the specific configuration: price = base price + all option prices + Correction.

Info

If the project property Has price list is off, this field is not shown in the Viewer.

Correction​

An optional correction to the Home price. Added to (or subtracted from) the base price. (Optional)

Mirrored​

Mirror the Home over the x-axis. Note: this is not construction-accurate.

Individual​

If enabled, the Home is shown in the Viewer in isolation (without the entire plan/3D scene). Apartments or stacked housing are a use case.

With lawn​

Only available if Individual is enabled. Determines whether a ground plane under the home is shown. For apartments/stacked housing, disable this.
