💡 What Are Mezzanines?
The Mezzanines feature lets you add an interior platform (mezzanine) to your 3D building in IdeaRoom. You can also include railings for safety and aesthetics, and add stairs that can be positioned on the left or right — with or without landings.
This feature allows customers to:
Showcase multi-level space configurations inside a building.
Visualize interior access and safety features (like stairs and railings).
Offer custom design flexibility for clients looking to maximize vertical space.
