This set of workshops provides progressively advanced introductions to 3D modeling using Google SketchUp. In our Intro class learn how this fun to use and easy to learn software can be implement throughout a project. In our Intermediate class investigate further into 3D topics and skills for successful integration of the software within a design practice. SketchUp bridges the gap between 2D drawing and 3D modeling by enabling you to draw using familiar pencil and paper paradigm in a software context. Architects, Interior Designers, Kitchen Designers, Builders, Landscape Designers, and design students will all benefit from this workshop.
