If you want it to look realistic you should use a model.
You can try to do it with brushes but you will probably find that the smallest brush you can make is still too large.
A model does not have this problem.
You do have to know a moddeling program though (blender, 3dsmax, maya, whatever).

But many times, brushes will do just fine. Having a detailed model for every little thing in your map like chairs, tables, paintings, windowpanes i dunno… will make the game have to draw more triangles resulting in lower FPS.

You can google for prefabs, or use the original ones. I am also creating 3d models
