I have a 1929 3-story house on a downward sloping lot. You cannot see the lower (basement) level from the street. We are starting a multiphase remodel and the lower level is first up. It's been a long while since I used this program, so I stumbled through creating a plan of the lower level.
(side note: When I was a practicing interior designer, I had Chief Architect Pro. It was installed on my laptop which crashed so severely that nothing was recoverable. After I retired, I became a Mac girl. All I could find for this project was the original Home Designer 8.0 that I started on many moons ago...and it's installed on hubby's old Think Pad laptop. )
I was about to add the main floor on top of my floorplan when I realized that I drew the "basement" as the first floor. Is there any way to reassign the drawn plan, making it the "foundation"/basement. Please don't tell me I have to redraw everything
Also, how can I show the sloping terrain?
I have a feeling that you are going to hear from me a lot on this forum....
Finally...my own house
in Q&A
