HouseCraft: Your New Architectural Sidekick

Transform basic geometry into detailed, destructible structures in Blender with HouseCraft, now featuring FBX export for seamless integration into game engines.

Enter HouseCraft, the latest add-on powered by Geometry Nodes, designed to metamorphose your rudimentary blockouts into intricate houses or even sprawling villages. Ideal for architectural visualizations, VFX, and other creative escapades, HouseCraft offers intuitive and customizable settings that make your virtual construction projects as breezy as a summer afternoon.

Features That’ll Make You Say ‘Wow’

With HouseCraft, adding architectural elements is as simple as pie. Windows, doors, chimneys, porches—you name it, you can place it. Feeling a bit green? Spruce up your creations with a touch of ivy for that authentic, weathered charm. And if you’re in the mood for some controlled chaos, HouseCraft offers three levels of structural damage: from minor chips to full-on destruction. Apply these effects individually or combine them to give your buildings a seasoned look or simulate destruction from roof to foundation.

Exporting Made Easy

In its latest update, HouseCraft has added the ability to export your meticulously crafted buildings, complete with textures, in FBX format. This enhancement ensures that your creations can seamlessly transition into Unreal Engine, Unity, Godot, Sketchfab, Marmoset… and pretty much everything else.

Learn and Share

Not sure where to start? HouseCraft comes equipped with tutorials to guide you through its features, ensuring you spend less time scratching your head and more time creating. The creators at GN Box are eager to see what you bring to life (and subsequently demolish), so after purchasing, don’t forget to share your masterpieces on social media platforms like X/Twitter and Bluesky using the hashtag #housecraft_geo.

A Word to the Wise
