Three-tier topiary

three-tier-topiary dresses tree:topiary-pot — and nothing else. Appearance is invisible to the drawing set, so adding this changes no plan, no section and no elevation.

The build. Made here, now, by the same interpreter a model gets.

Three-tier topiary, shown as a photorealistic visual reference — **The reference.** AI-generated, not bimtex output — the authored input this body was written against.

$foliage

$frame

$surface

$bark

This definition leaves $foliage and $frame and $surface and $bark open, and a look line fills them. Every combination is one body — same geometry, same selector, same sheets — so the block below rewrites itself as you pick. Only materials are slottable: a size would have to agree with the plan, so it stays on the entity.

Every part: the 3 materialdefs the body resolves to, then the definition. Copying the lookdef alone still compiles and still validates — it just renders grey.
