What is Housie all about?

This program allows you to design a (very) simple house without having to write any POV-Ray code. You design the house by clicking on the grey lines in the diagram above to place wall segments. Wall segments can include windows and doors - simply choose the options you want from the menu box above.

The house can have more than one floor. Use the controls at the top of the page to move to higher or lower floors and design them accordingly. However, you can't move to any floors below 0 (there are no basements!) and you can't move to any higher floor unless there is at least one wall on the current floor to support it.

Converting the blueprint to a POV-Ray file

The whole purpose of this program is to produce a POV-Ray file that can be loaded into POV-Ray and turned into a picture. Click on the button below to create the POV-Ray file from the house that you have designed.

The created code will appear in the text area on the left, highlighted. To copy it into the clipboard, press Ctrl with C. Then activate POV-Ray and paste the text into a blank file. Alternatively, you can paste it into a text file in another application, such as Notepad, to be loaded into POV-Ray later.
