[EnergyPlus_Support] Complicate Zone Geometry modeling

Hi I have a complex geometry that I want to model. The geometry is a small cube inside a bigger zone with no connection between them (like the small cube floats inside the zone). In reality is a glass cube that is held on metal beams 2m above the floor.

I think one way is to divide the big zone to 6 smaller zones that enclose the small cube, but in this case the surfaces that will connect the small zones will have to be voids.  In this case the only way to simulate the voids (as I know) is with windows that have low resistance. Is there any better way 

Can anyone tell me any other way that I could model the big cube (I would prefer as one big zones due to model complexity)    

Thank you in advance
