Archicad Tutorial #79: Arched Openings with sloped sides and Complex Profile Door Trim

What happens when you need a complicated arched opening or trim around a door that isn't available in the out of the box library? Well there are a lot of solutions (Morphs, Objects and/or GDL scripting, Shells...) but my favorite solution is using Beams and Columns. I know, surprising right? Well Beams and Columns are easy to use, easy to edit, and super versatile.

This video was made using the Shoegnome Open Template v25.0 and the Shoegnome Work Environment for Archicad 25. Links below:

As always the template and work environment are free; a good Archicad template (and work environment) is too important to horde. If you want to click the PayPal button on the template or work environment pages to support my endeavors and encourage future development, that's wonderful. Whenever people do that, it makes my day.
