The little one and I did it!

Since our family has an ingrained tradition of remembering everything at the last moment, this case was no exception. My son Vadik told me about the assignment exactly one day before it was due. There was nowhere to go - I had to get to work!

Tools and materials

The model of the city does not require any extra-natural materials, and a normal student should have everything available:

1. Ruler
2. Colored paper + colored cardboard
3. Colour pencils
4. Scissors
5. Brushes + paints (we used gouache)
6. Glue
7. A4 paper

How to make a city layout

We thought about it a little and decided that since time was running out, we would make a road + a couple of buildings + some kind of transport. We decided - we do it.

We took a piece of thick cardboard, cut out a 40 by 30 cm rectangle from it. Then we pasted it on one side with A4 office paper.

Having carefully trimmed the edges, we got a base for the layout, which is ready for painting.

They drew an impromptu road

The next step was to build a high-rise building. I don’t give explicit dimensions, since everything was done by eye...

Before gluing the building together I decorated it

This is what happened after gluing

We cut the back of the building to size, then glued it on and also painted it.

Children's city layout

Sorry friends.

Due to the fact that time was really pressing, the shooting had to be postponed. The building alone took almost 2 hours.

The next step was a bus. They did it according to the same principle as the building - they glued it together and painted it. Balconies were added to the building and the inscription “shop” was attached to the bottom.

They built a stop with a sign and made several trees.

The final step was gluing all the products onto the base. To make it stick better in some places I had to use tape :)

And here is the result!

And further…

The city model with your own hands is ready!

Thank you for watching!

Have you decided to build own house? This process is long and complex, but the game is certainly worth the candle. Where to begin? Of course, from creating a layout. This service is offered today by hundreds of specialized companies throughout Russia. Their services are not cheap. They can charge up to 20 thousand rubles for a project. But designing a house, if you use your head, is not a difficult thing. There are some points that you need to pay close attention to. You can design a house yourself on a computer using online and offline programs. Some of them offer free use, others work only after payment. Which one to choose, and in general, where to start?

Before you make a housing plan on the computer, you need to decide how you imagine it:

• how many floors are in the building;
• will there be a basement?
• what should the roof be like?
• how many rooms?
• Is there a need for a bathroom on the second and subsequent floors of the house;
• will there be a room or attic under the roof;
• Is there a garage in the building?

You need to immediately estimate the area of ​​the house based on the number of residents.

Important: according to modern house-building standards, at least 12 square meters living space (more is possible, the main thing is not less). Only in this case will the house be comfortable and cozy for every family member.

Design and build a house so that there is a place for every family member. Based on the requirement - 12 square meters per person

It is also necessary to conduct georeconnaissance of the area: from the nature of the soil to the level groundwater. This can be clarified with the administration of the city or village where you intend to build your own home. Why is such data needed? To lay the foundation correctly. Depending on the land, it can be:

• tape;
• monolithic;
• tiled (slit);
• columnar;
• pile;
• stepped.

A basement in a house is not always a reasonable decision. If the groundwater level is too high, then the construction of the basement will cost a pretty penny - too much money will be spent on waterproofing. If you need a basement for storing household utensils, seams, etc., simply create one room in the house without windows and make it unheated.

When designing a house, keep in mind that a basement is convenient and practical, but expensive. It’s cheaper to equip one of the building’s rooms for similar purposes instead of a basement.

The old fashioned way: draw a plan with a pencil on paper

Creating a sketch using a pencil on a sheet of paper precedes designing a home on a computer. A sketch is just a sketch, rough plan, no more. Why is it so important to start with a simple layout:

• to understand what exactly you want from your future home;
• if necessary, you can add or remove a room or an entire floor;
• to imagine how the building will be located on the site relative to other objects;
• determine how many windows and doors there will be in the house;
• provide space for a stove if necessary;
• decide how the building will be heated.

A house plan on paper before designing on a computer will help you understand: what the structure should be like, whether all the rooms are needed, where the doors and windows will be located

Draw on paper the outer and interior views Houses. When compiling internal project building with your own hands, consider the following points:

• the first floor should include a vestibule and an entrance hall;
• the toilet, bathroom and kitchen should be located next to each other - this will simplify the wiring of communications;
• It’s good if there are no walk-through rooms in the house - they are not very convenient to use;
• on the ground floor you need to provide a storage room and a dressing room - this is convenient to use;
• immediately draw windows and doors;
• on the second floor, a toilet and a bathroom are not always needed, but only if the building area is more than 100 square meters, and the number of residents is 5 people or more;
• if you are designing a 3D house yourself and are going to build it yourself, stop at gable roof. It is the easiest to build, and you can make an attic underneath it;
• make it a rule: utility rooms should be located on the north side, and residential ones on the south or east. During the day, sunlight will enter through the windows, which will heat the air in the room. This way you can save on heating;
• immediately indicate the dimensions of the house on the plan.

It is also important to draw a house plan yourself and indicate the materials from which the house will be built.

To learn how to correctly draw a house drawing on paper, watch the video:

Without communications - nowhere

Another important stage in housing design - engineering and technical calculations. This is a kind of plan where communications are noted, without which it will be impossible to use the house:

• heat supply system;
• water supply and drainage pipes;
• Electricity of the net;
• ventilation;
• fire alarm.

Sometimes this list also includes a security alarm.

What is an engineering plan - see below.

The best programs: how to make a 3D house drawing on a computer

To draw a house plan on a computer yourself, you will need a computer with Internet access and a special program. All 3D house design programs can be divided into two types:

• working only online;
• allowing you to draw a home project offline.

Almost all modern programs that allow you to design a building yourself draw 3D models. This system allows you to see the house from all sides in a “volumetric view”.

You can create a 3D house project on your computer in a day. The program interface is simple and clear, it is not difficult to understand it

Among the popular online programs for designing a building with your own hands are the following:

• Planner 5D resource. Even experienced architects use this program. With its help, you can plan any home - from an apartment to a country penthouse. There is no need to register or undergo training. Everything is so simple and clear that even a child can handle it. There are special templates that will reduce the time spent on self-composition house project. With Planner 5D you can even develop your own interior design. However, many resource functions are paid. To use the program for a month you will have to pay about 300 rubles.

Subtleties of using Planner 5D:

• The Rooms tab will help you create the rooms of a building in 3D mode. The footage of the walls and the height of the ceilings are immediately set;
• the Construction tab is responsible for the presence of windows, doors, and stairs;
• use the Interior button to create a room design;
• use the Exterior button to draw outbuildings in the yard;
• The layout can be saved in the PC memory and printed on paper.
• The HouseCreator designer helps you move from 3D design to calculations. The instructions, which can be found on the designer’s website, will tell you about using the resource. Everything is simple and clear, the minus is a small number of options:
• The “Wall” tab allows you to create rooms the right size in 3d;
• “Opening” is the installation of windows, doors, stairs;
• “Roof” – for drawing the roof, respectively;
• the project can be saved in the PC memory and viewed offline.

Many options are available in free mode. But you will need to pay for the settlement. To do this, send a request to the site administrators. Decoration is not provided in HouseCreator.

• The Planoplan program is similar to the previous ones. Plus, it allows you not only to draw a house project on a PC, but also to “wander” through it using a special option. Planoplan allows you to take into account even the location of sockets and lighting fixtures in 3d mode.
• Many architects and designers prefer Homestyler. The resource contains real brands and brands of furniture, building materials, therefore the program is considered as close to reality as possible.

You can learn more about online resources that allow you to draw a house plan with your own hands on a computer from the video.

To draw a structure, you can download a program to your computer that does not require the Internet to work:

• The Autodesk resource is paid (about 500 rubles per month). It is allowed to be used free of charge by students and teachers of construction universities. Autodesk is professional tool. You can even design a car with it! To use the program you need to download from the official website. A demo version with limited features is available for free. Tools allow you to select not only materials for construction, but also the nature of the terrain, relief, and soil conditions.
• SolidWorks is considered complex, but the most professional program. Anyone can figure it out if they want. Video tutorials and e-books can help.
• SketchUp is a very cool resource for those who dream, without exaggeration, of their own city! The program allows you to create your own municipality, not to mention draw a building in 3D.

Listed here are only the main programs for drawing do-it-yourself private building projects on a PC.

Useful little things

You can make a house plan yourself, but based on the result you get, you shouldn’t start construction right away.

It would be good, before designing a house yourself, to learn everything about the norms and rules for the construction of residential buildings. You can read about this.

Even when designing small house, follow the basic rules and requirements. Otherwise, the building will not be able to be used or even built.

After drawing up a house design on your computer, print it out and take it to the architect. If there are no such specialists among your friends and relatives, your direct route is to the BTI - the Technical Inventory Bureau. Submit your layout there. Department employees will evaluate your drawing and give (or not give) a building permit.

Start drawing a house project on the computer yourself when you have an engineering layout and a pencil sketch on paper ready.

Remember, creating a project must meet the following principles:

• The house plan should be simple. If you want to build an original and unique building with many floors, balconies and other complex architectural elements, turn to professionals for help;
• the design of the building must meet the requirements of aesthetics and morality;
• Before you design a house yourself on a computer, decide on the foundation. Electronic platforms do not provide it.

Even before designing a house, decide on the foundation of the building. The foundation will give the structure strength and reliability

Finally

Do you intend to create a building project yourself? Nothing is impossible. Be sure to familiarize yourself with the building construction standards and construction rules. This will make your work easier in the future.

It is convenient to use offline programs to draw your house. You can safely work with them, even if the Internet suddenly freezes or turns off. However, online resources are considered more complete and modern, they have more functions.

This craft will not take a lot of time and materials, and this activity will be very useful for the child.

Dollhouse, like ordinary apartment, requires comfort. To make your home more comfortable, you need to put wallpaper on the walls - made from colored paper, packaging wrapper or simple glossy magazines. You can hang curtains on the windows; you probably have a piece of unnecessary fabric. To attach them, use pushpins or a stapler.

Step-by-step master class: how to make a cardboard house for a cat

If you have a tailed, mustachioed animal living at home, you know how cats love to hide - they jump into a stroller, climb into boxes or onto a shelf. You can make a house out of a box and your pet will have a personal apartment that no one will claim.

Cardboard cat box - original and interesting idea, but, alas, such a house will quickly fall into disrepair. Cardboard is afraid of water, so it cannot be washed. If your pet confuses the house with the litter box, the cat's apartment will have to be thrown away.

In addition, cats love to sharpen their claws, and this can also damage the house.

Despite the disadvantages, this option is the cheapest and fastest to implement.

Building a cat house:

1. You need to choose a box in which your cat will not feel cramped. Cats love space and enjoy visibility, so you shouldn't place the box in the farthest corner of the room.
2. You need to lay a rug or a pillow on the floor.
3. You can cover the outside of the house with old wallpaper so that the cat’s home does not disturb the interior of the “human” room.

When the house is ready, invite the cat to explore it. Let him get used to the new thing, study it. There is no need to force the cat to immediately climb inside, this may only scare him away.

How to make a house out of cardboard (video)

If you have imagination and love to craft, you will be able to make a toy house out of cardboard. This gift will appeal to both babies and older children. Even an adult girl will appreciate such a gift, because very often you want to return to a carefree childhood and play with Barbie dolls again.

It would be a mistake to think that only little girls make paper house models with their own hands. Of course, your princess will also be happy with such a gift, but they can also be useful in architectural design. Before starting construction, always make a small copy. In this case, PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is used, from which milling machine cut out the finest details. They are then combined with a solvent.

But it is possible to repeat the masterpieces of architects without special equipment. Such a house can be not only a useful layout, but also a decoration for the house. The most common material for this is paper, so the process will not cost you too much.

We buy materials

For work you will need colored paper or cardboard. The latter is preferable for complex models, since increased strength is required there. It is better to take paper for development.

All windows, doors and other small parts will be cut through with a knife. Make sure it is sharp enough; it is better to buy it at a hardware store.

You can connect the parts with either super glue - it allows you to speed up the process - or PVA (but it is better to speed up its drying with a hairdryer). In addition, scissors, a pencil and a ruler will come in handy. You can use paints for decoration.

Selecting a scan

If this is your first experience in reproducing house layouts, it is better, of course, to take a ready-made layout. You can not only find them on the Internet, but also make them yourself. This is a very exciting process.

You can choose almost any program. It is desirable that it works with vector images. One of the most convenient in this regard is CorelDRAW. Constructions in it are very easy, you can change the thickness of the lines and load your own textures. But the built-in library also pleases with the proposed photos.

The first step is to draw an oblong rectangle. Now it needs to be divided into two pairs of identical walls located one after the other. You need to build a floor along the lower edges; it is attached to one of the edges to the general layout. We divide the roof into segments and also attach it. After this you can add architectural elements And visual effects. And don't forget about the fastening strips.

Assembly steps

We print and cut out the diagram we previously received.

If you don't have a color printer or didn't use textures, you can transfer the blank to cardboard.

Using a needle and awl, mark the locations of windows, doors and decorative elements. You need to cut everything out at once, entirely. And preferably with a stationery knife - scissors will leave marks. Pre-lay down a sheet of plywood.

Additionally, make shutters, doors, awnings and the like. We will glue them at the very end. Using a ruler, work out all the folds - this will make it easier to assemble.
