1950s Magazine Mailorder Plans | Live 3D Modeling in SketchUp
2“Seven first-floor rooms on a city lot” boasts a headline in the February 1952 issue of Better Homes & Gardens. The Five Star Home Plan Service gave post-war families access to plans, specifications, a contractor-and-owner agreement, and a cost-finding list of materials—all through the mail.
Back then you would have to enclose $5 in a postal money order to the magazine to build from these plans. Today, Aaron can model Five Star Home No. 2202 in a scant couple of hours!
Tune in to see real-time 3D modeling of 72-year-old architectural plans. By the end, Aaron will have a house that “doesn’t look conspicuous in a conservative neighborhood.”
Conversation’s bound to sparkle in the friendly atmosphere of SketchUp Live! See you there!
