# How to add a building to MyJoan?
## Buildings are essentially groups of rooms/resources that share the same settings. This allows for easier management of your Joan devices and your office resources in general.
Buildings are not connected to your calendar and are exclusive to your [MyJoan](https://my.getjoan.com/) account. These buildings can be anything from a different office to simply a different room you wish to have different settings. So, when adding a building, you are actually creating it.
If you wish to learn more about building-specific settings, click [here](https://support.getjoan.com/knowledge/building-specific-settings?hsLang=en). Otherwise, follow these steps in order to add a building and connect resources to it:
