# How to build

Spaces are created by constructing [blueprints](https://docs.ksub.com/build-a-space/blueprints) and positioning them in the desired areas within your space. 

A constructed blueprint is called a blueprint instance. 

Apply an available building material to a blueprint in order to construct a new instance of that blueprint.

#### Example

A brick wall is constructed by applying *brick* material to a *wall* blueprint. 
{% endhint %}

### Select a blueprint

Make a selection from the [available blueprints](https://docs.ksub.com/blueprints#available-blueprints).

### Apply a material

Each blueprint has a variety of materials available. Select your preferred material depending on what you're building and apply it to the blueprint.

### Position the instance

Position the blueprint instance in the desired location within your space. 

An instance will have a green tint if it is positioned in a valid location, and a red tint if it is positioned in an invalid location.
