        One example with Curviloft (Fredo6).
        (The sides are not coplanar, should they?)

          From the 3 Arcs only the arc top one is coplanar! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
          So a creepy surface! It's a bad part of cheese! ๐Ÿ’š
          No clean rotation possible, no easy past etc...

            You could "stitch" this together rather quickly. Or you could add verticals at the 3 corners then skin each of the three sides with Curviloft. Group all and reverse the faces so that all outsides are the front or white material.

            The way this was created, you could also use Extrusion tools- extrude edges by vector from one shell shape to the other (which seems to be a copy). Similarly you could have used Joint Push Pull--Vector Push Pull on one shape to extrude it up and make the second shell as well.

            One way to stitch it is just with vertical lines point to point since the shapes are identical.
