Abstract :
Many virtual environments require architectural settings, which often prove time consuming and tedious to model. Here the author introduces methods and techniques for rapid modeling and modifying of detailed building facades that adapt to geometry automatically. Designers can then modify the facade´s outline, window placement, and different styles on an abstract level.
