    This is a difficult matter in any Home Designer title, it is doable in Chief Premier with its custom object modeling tools. I do not believe it can easily be done cleanly in any Home Designer title, my advice is to lower your expectations in terms of 3D modeling using text and your image to communicate the outcome for now. This sort of modeling can more easily be done in Sketch Up since you are creating objects and spaces from scratch as opposed to the object-based programming of Home Designer and Chief Architect.
    The main thing is to be able to clearly communicate one's intentions and plans to other building professionals, this can easily be done at any time using existing tools and conventions.
