Contemporary Timber and Stone Pitched Roof House Scene

This contemporary SketchUp scene features a timber and stone house with a pitched metal roof, set within a landscaped garden. The structure exhibits a modern interpretation of vernacular forms, characterised by a sharp, asymmetrical pitched roof clad in dark metal standing-seam panels. Warm-toned vertical timber cladding dominates the primary facade, contrasted by a robust natural stone base at the side elevation. A spiral external staircase provides access to an elevated balcony, adding a sculptural industrial element to the composition. Large glazing panels ensure transparency, while integrated skylights punctuate the roofline. The surrounding site includes rolling grassy terrain with scattered boulders and structured shrubbery, creating a cohesive, naturalistic environment for a rural or semi-rural residential project.

The download is a 9.9 MB compressed archive containing the native SketchUp (.skp) model. It opens directly in SketchUp; for 3ds Max, Blender or Cinema 4D, import it through a SketchUp importer or convert it first.

Working with this SketchUp scene involves navigating the established layer structure to manage site elements separately from the building geometry. Users can adjust the environmental lighting and camera positions to suit specific project requirements for exterior studies. The materials are pre-applied, allowing for quick adjustments to texture scaling or colour palettes to match specific design intent. It is advisable to audit the component hierarchy upon insertion to ensure optimal performance when integrating the model into larger masterplan files or site-specific contexts.
