Simple Wall stands out in the superhive library for turning wall blockout into a sketch-and-edit workflow, with live previews and non-destructive segment editing that avoid manual rebuilds.
Simple Wall lets you draw walls, arcs, rectangles, and polylines directly in the Blender viewport. Click to place points and watch a live preview of the wall's width and length as you go. Press O for orthographic constraints or type a number to set an exact length, then right-click to finish the shape. Curved arcs take three clicks, with the mouse wheel adjusting smoothness on the fly.
After creation, geometry stays editable. Select a wall and change its width, height, or alignment (top, middle, or base) from the panel, and the mesh updates instantly. Each segment's length and angle is labeled in the viewport, and an edit icon lets you tweak a single part. Arcs recompute in real time when you adjust baseline length or arc height while preserving other dimensions.
Workplanes let you set a reference plane on any surface (floor, wall, or a custom angle) and draw on it. Smart snapping targets vertices, edge midpoints, or a user-defined grid. The add-on supports Blender's Metric or Imperial units. A lock system marks finished walls read-only with an orange lock icon, and top faces can be color-coded with one click.
Simple Wall is best for architects and designers blocking out floor plans, elevations, and massing models; game environment artists prototyping building layouts and level geometry; and 3D generalists creating walls, fences, pathways, and curved structures.
Simple Wall is completely free to download and use.
Simple Wall v1.0 is built for Blender 4.2 and up, through the 5.0 series. The package delivers a complete workflow for straight walls, curved arcs, polylines, and rectangles, plus interactive drawing tools, post-creation editing, a workplane system, and locking with visual indicators. If you are on an older Blender build, check the developer's page to confirm the minimum requirement before installing.
Simple Wall lets you set length precisely as you draw. Click to place points and watch a live preview of the wall's width and length, press O to apply orthographic constraints, or type a number to set an exact length before right-clicking to finish. Smart snapping targets vertices, edge midpoints, or a user-defined grid, and combines with numeric input for millimeter-perfect accuracy. Lengths display in Blender's Metric or Imperial units, from meters and centimeters to feet and inches.
Simple Wall keeps walls editable after they are drawn. Select a wall and change its width, height, or alignment between top, middle, and base from the panel, and the mesh updates instantly with no rebuild. Every segment's length and angle is labeled in the viewport, and an edit icon next to a segment lets you adjust just that part of the design. For curved walls, changing the baseline length or arc height recomputes the geometry in real time while preserving your other dimensions.
Simple Wall includes a lock system for protecting finished geometry. Lock your completed walls and arcs to make them read-only, which prevents accidental changes to their width or height, and an orange lock icon floats above protected objects so you can see what is safe at a glance. You can also assign colors to the top faces of walls and arcs with one click, which is useful for presentations, material IDs, or visualizing a floor plan.
Simple Wall is listed as free in this catalog, so you can add it to your Blender setup without a purchase. Licensing terms can change over time, so check the developer's page on superhive for the current details before you download. The package includes the full workflow for straight walls, curved arcs, polylines, and rectangles, along with interactive drawing, post-creation editing, workplanes, and the locking system, all under the v1.0 initial release.
