Duplicate the cube, adjust its height to 14mm, and subtract it from the first cube to form

 HANDS-ON PROJECT        a hollow shape.
                         Use the resulting shape to cut two windows in the wall.
 PROJECT NAME: 3D Multifunctional Room Design Project  4.  Divide Functional Zones
 Objective:              Use thin box shapes to divide the room into sections, such as:

    Design a functional 3D room with accurate dimensions, walls, doors, windows, and functional   o  Kitchen
 zones.                  o  Living Area

    Add furniture, decorations, and functional elements to make the design realistic and visually   o  Study Zone
 appealing.              Adjust the thickness and position of the partitions to fit the room layout.

    Export the final design for presentation or 3D printing.  5.  Add Furniture and Fixtures
                         Use basic 3D shapes like boxes, cylinders, and cones to create furniture:
 Step-by-Step Instructions:  o  Tables, chairs, and shelves.
 1.  Set Up the Workplane     Scale and position each object to fit the designated zones.

    Open Tinkercad and set the workplane as the base   6.  Decorate with Patterns and Details
 for your design.    Patterns:

    Use the gridlines to help align objects accurately.     Add decorative elements (e.g., tiles or wall art) by duplicating smaller shapes.
                         Use the align tool to distribute patterns evenly.
 2.  Design the Outer Structure
                     Details:
 Floor:
                         Include additional features like:
    Drag and  drop  a  large  rectangular  box  onto  the   o  Door handles
 workplane.              o  Lamps
    Use the ruler tool to adjust the dimensions to match the desired size of the room.  o  Shelves

    Walls:               Scale and group simple shapes to form these objects.

    Add a cube and adjust its dimensions: Width: 192mm, Length: 132mm, Height: 70mm.  7.  Finalize and Lock Design
    Duplicate the cube and reduce its width and length by 6mm from the center.     Lock completed objects to prevent accidental changes.

    Adjust the height and position to ensure the second cube cuts through the first.     Hide unnecessary parts to focus on specific sections of the design.
    Change the second cube to a hole and group both shapes to create hollow walls.  8.  Review and Export
 3.  Add Doorways and Windows     Switch between different views to ensure accuracy and completeness.

    Doorway:             Export the model for presentation or 3D printing.
    Create a new workplane on the floor.
    Drag a cube and set its dimensions: Height: 45mm, Width: 25mm.  Quick Tips
    Position the cube to cut through the front wall.     Use Ctrl + D to quickly duplicate objects.
    Change the cube to a hole and group it with the walls to create a doorway.     Zoom in to ensure precise alignment for doors and windows.
    Duplicate the cube before grouping to save it for the door design.     Save your design regularly to avoid losing progress.

    Windows:     Bonus Features
    Create a new workplane on the wall.

    Add a cube with dimensions: Width: 32mm, Height: 42mm.     Interactive Elements:
                     o  Add movable parts like doors or drawers using hinges.
