'''Box modeling''' is a technique in [[3D modeling]] where the model is created by modifying primitive shapes in a way to create a "rough draft" of the final model. This is in contrast with the [[edge modeling]] method, where the modeler edits individual [[vertex (geometry)|vertices]]. While a primary function of box modeling involves extruding and scaling the flat planes that make up a model, called ''faces'', another, more prominent feature of this art style gives it a second, less rudimentary name of [[subdivision surface|subdivision]] modeling.

Box modeling is also a technique used in [[web design]] to lay out the various elements of a [[web page]] before the design is implemented in [[HTML]] or [[XHTML]].
