I’m trying to create something like the photo above. I’m able to create a pyramid but not skewed like in the photo.

Any help is much appreciated.

Hi Rodi01  
Welcome to the forum.

I would simply create two sketches of two faces and use the loft tool between the 2 faces.  
Any set of two faces should work.

There are many ways to do this. @PEC’s suggestion is straight forward. Others will offer different approaches. Here’s one.

Here’s my 2 cents…

I simply create the base profile I want then extrude it to the required height before moving the edge back to the ground plane.
