You might also want to look at povhouse at
http://www.geocities.com/povstairs/povhouse/ . It takes a floor plan (with
doors windows, columns, floors, ceilings etc) drawn in the free InkScape
vector graphics editor. You name each element in InkScape and export as a
POV-Ray include file. The POV-House macros take the exported prism objects
and renders a 3D building.
It might provide a starting point for what you want to do, or may serve as
an example or inspiration.
