Object 7: Building Container
Most of the objects described so far are types of containers. Containers have an interior area that are secluded by boundaries. There are Bottom, Top and Side boundaries.

Each boundary in a container has a Form. A form is a container-type object that can have the necessary descriptions or Property of materials typical in building envelops.
