The Ladies in our Interiors Department are soooooo demanding ;)

In addition to my carpet tile issue, I am now looking for an SD system furniture cube. We don't want actual panels, or even the modeled 2 sided cubicle provided by Revit OOTB. We need literally just an outline, ideally that resizes in both directions based on system furniture standards, and will then schedule as a single cube with area. It needs no 3D expression, no work surface or shelving or storage or anything. Just the idea of "cubeness". Has anyone built this animal yet?
And thank you Phil Read for establishing the suffix 'ness' as a fundamental part of my design language. I couldn't function without that suffix!

Thanks,
Gordon

P.s. Has anyone done the same with Base and Upper cabs? Not the fully expressed stuff that is in available OOTB, with doors and everything. Just a countertop and mass base, or mass upper. No doors or drawers or shelves or anything. And ideally defined by sketch so you can quickly trace a "U" shape in a room and get a base or upper cabinet on three walls? General Model Line Based seems to just do a single length. Is there no family that effectively extrudes a profile along a multi-vertex path, while still being a Casework family for schedule purposes?

Here's a really generic casework family I created, it has to be a generic model if you want to join geomety at corners, and the linework for the uppers can be adjusted to clean up at corners as well. I set the material to generic so you can quickly see what needs to be resolved as the project moves forward
