This is a 32-37 prim residential skybox perfect for a hideaway home in the sky.

32 prims for the building
3 prims for optional texture menu controls
1 prim x2 for pair of teleport pads

Everything is packaged using the Builder Buddy system for easy rezzing and alignment.

Use the included 16x32 Footprint to help you line up the Builder Buddy rezbox - giving the two the exact same numeric coordinates will place your skybox in the center of the footprint.

On a typical 512m plot, you can put the footprint on the ground, line it up to be exactly inside your land, and then edit the 'z' coordinate to any height on up to about 4080m into the sky (to make sure you have room on the roof for any items you want to place).

Just put the rezbox into the center of the footprint, and touch it for an easy to work menu to create the skybox. When you've got it where you want it, touch the rezbox again to clean out the scripts, and delete the rezbox and footprint for a finished building.

I've built this to be very spacious, maximizing the use of a 16x32 512sqm plot on as few prims as possible. Also includes a basement and a walkway up to a low-walled rooftop area.

The doors have an access-list based script, and a simple yet efficient teleportation system is included using 1-prim platforms at each end (you can rezz multiple platforms for additional TP-points).

Wall textures can be changed with an owner-controlled menu based system using controls placed near the front doors (unlinked so they can easily be taken into inventory if you wish to save prims).

Windows with individual access lists can be clicked to individually apply Shoji-screen shutter textures for privacy.

The skybox is copy and modify allowing you to alter whatever you desire, place multiple copies, or whatever.
