SketchUp 3D Challenge #277: Cat Condo

Challenge Period: Monday, 20 November 2017 - Sunday, 3 December 2017

Cat tree

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A cat tree (also referred to as a cat tree house, cat condo, kitty condo, cat stand, cat post or cat tower) is an artificial structure for a cat to play, exercise, relax and sleep on. 
Cat trees vary in height and complexity, with most cats preferring features offering height over comfort, particularly if tall enough to allow a clear survey of their territory. While most cats seem to prefer tall cat trees, some prefer options which offer shelter or a secluded escape, which may be at any height of the structure.

SketchUp 3D Challenge #276: Toll Booths

Challenge Period: Monday, 6 November 2017 - Sunday, 19 November 2017


Originating from toll houses (where toll takers once lived), toll booths are used to collect fees for road construction and maintenance. Automation is quickly leading to their obsolescence but for now they live on.

For the purposes of this challenge, you are to model a toll plaza of any size you choose. You may include the modern electronic toll collection or automatic number plate recognition systems, but they must appear in addition to booths.
