Already widely used by architects and landscape architects, SketchUp is increasingly finding a place in an interior designer's workflow. SketchUp for Interior Design is an ideal introduction for both interior design professionals and students who are interested in learing how to utilize SketchUp for their unique set of needs. After covering the basics of creating 3D models with SketchUp, this book goes on to show how SketchUp can be used to create space plans, model furniture, cabinetry, and accessories, experiment with colors and materials, incorporate actual manufacturers' models into project plans, and create final presentations and animated walk-throughs for clients. Clear explanations and illustrations in each chapter guide the reader from basic to more complex topics. Bonus material such as downloadable models and tutorial videos will enhance understanding for both students and professionals.
