In this video, we will select options that simplify the representation to help us focus on conceptual design, both when we're working in 3D and in 2D. From the top pull-down menu, we're going to select "view", "3D view options", And we see that the current option selected is "detailed shading."

We can now see that that has highly simplified our 3D model. If we go to our project map, in our navigator on the right-hand side of the screen, I'm going to double click on my "ground floor view".
