Making a 2D Stage

[CapnADC]

Okay, so I saw a guy making a 2D stage of his high school, and it piqued my interest. I would like to find out how to make a stage like that, such as one of my house. How would I be able to go about it, and what software/materials will I need? Many thanks. (Sorry for being such a noob)
