Landmarks shouldn’t take weeks

Modeling one famous tower from reference takes days, and a whole skyline takes much longer. Artists struggle to:

  • Get real proportions without hours of reference work
  • Keep huge city scenes light and responsive
  • Add variation so every tower doesn’t look the same
  • Texture every building again and again

Skyscraper Kit builds famous towers and endless variations for you, ready for your own materials.

Five landmarks, built from real dimensions

Every landmark is generated procedurally from its real floor plan, setbacks and crown. It isn’t a heavy imported model.

  • Empire State Building (1931) – setbacks, mooring mast and antenna, 443 m
  • Chrysler Building (1930) – seven terraced steel arches, triangular windows, eagles, spire
  • Woolworth Building (1913) – neo-Gothic tower, copper pyramid, turrets and pinnacles
  • 30 Rockefeller Plaza (1933) – the Art Deco slab with stepped ends
  • Flatiron Building (1902) – the triangular prow and heavy cornice

Crown details

The Chrysler arches, the Empire State mast and the Woolworth copper roof are modeled with care. Turn each on or off with one checkbox.

Endless towers from a seed

Pick a style, set floors and lot size, and roll the seed. Generic towers never repeat.

Four tower styles

Fill the rest of the city with towers that fit next to the landmarks.

Art Deco Setback
Stone towers that step back as they rise, with stepped, vaulted or spire crowns.
Classic Pre-war
Rusticated base, punched windows, heavy cornice and a rooftop water tank.
Modern Glass
Curtain walls, thin mullions, chamfered corners and mechanical crowns.
Slab Tower
Tall slabs stepping back from one end, with vertical stone stripes.

Instant skyline

One button fills a grid of blocks with the landmarks and random towers, tall in the centre and lower toward the edge. Every building is a lightweight instance.

Made for big scenes

Three levels of detail and collection instances keep even a whole downtown light.

Full
Facade relief, ribs and recessed windows.
Medium
Flat facades with fewer faces.
Massing
Blocks only, for buildings far away.
Instances
Built once into a hidden library, instanced everywhere.

Texture once, update everything

Every building shares the same material slots: Stone, Dark Stone, Spandrel, Trim, Glass, Roof, Metal, Antenna and Copper. Texture them once and the whole city updates.

UVWorld
Real-world metres, continuous around every wall, for tiling textures.
UVCell
Each window pane is 0–1, for window and frame textures.
floor / win_rand
Floor number and a random value per window, for lit-window shaders.

Day and night

Preview shaders light random windows at night using the built-in attributes. One slider goes from golden hour to a city at night.
