Terracotta Ventilated Breeze Block Facade Panels

This SketchUp model features a set of three modular terracotta breeze block panels designed for ventilated facade applications. These modular terracotta panels provide an effective solution for creating ventilated facades or decorative privacy screens. The set includes three distinct geometric patterns: a square-aperture grid, a circular-aperture grid, and a variation featuring angled, recessed square openings. Each panel is rendered in a natural, matte terracotta finish, showcasing the material's inherent warmth and texture. The designs are consistent in their rectangular format, allowing for seamless vertical or horizontal stacking. These components are ideal for architectural detailing where airflow and solar shading are required, offering a balance between functional performance and structural aesthetic.

The download is a 96.1 MB file containing the native SketchUp (.skp) model holding 3 separate objects. It opens directly in SketchUp; for 3ds Max, Blender or Cinema 4D, import it through a SketchUp importer or convert it first.

To integrate these panels into your SketchUp model, use the native component structure to array the blocks across your building facade. Each panel is organised as a discrete component, allowing for easy substitution or customisation of the pattern sequence. Ensure your model units are set to millimetres to maintain accurate scaling. For large-scale applications, group the components into layers to manage viewport performance effectively. Apply custom textures or materials to the individual faces if specific weathering or material variations are required for your render.
