Maybe you’re an experienced architect or interior designer who doesn’t know this specific software and you want to learn a new skill. The online 3D Modeling with SketchUp course offered by NYIAD is for anyone looking to build their skills as a 3D modeler for work specifically in the architecture or interior design industries.

The software is available as a web-based application, SketchUp Free, as a freeware version called SketchUp Make, and as paid version (this version includes additional functionality and allows designers to do more) called SketchUp Pro. SketchUp, formerly called Google Sketchup, is a 3D modeling computer program that designers use in a number of industries- architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, civil and mechanical engineering, and film and video game design, just to name a few. Using software such as Sketchup, a 3D modeling specialist can take a flat floor plan and make it come alive, offering clients the ability to take a virtual tour of a space that looks much more real in 3D. 3D modeling is a modern design process that can help interior designers bring one-dimensional representations of spaces and objects to life.
