Master essential SketchUp tools and workflows tailored for interior space planning and foundational modeling. This course empowers designers to efficiently organize, manipulate, and prepare digital spaces for further development. This course introduces interior designers and architects to the core SketchUp techniques needed for effective space planning and foundational 3D modeling. Learners will explore essential navigation shortcuts, component management, modeling hierarchies, and time-saving tools that streamline the design process. By the end of the course, participants will be able to confidently set up and manage SketchUp projects, import and export drawings, and create accurate as-built floor plans. Through a combination of clear explanations, practical demonstrations, and targeted quizzes, this course guides learners step-by-step through the key SketchUp features and workflows relevant to interior design. The content is structured to build confidence and fluency in using SketchUp for professional space planning. The course is designed for interior designers, architects, or anyone looking to master SketchUp for space planning purposes. A basic understanding of design concepts or prior experience with similar tools would be beneficial but not required. This course is part one of a three-course Specialization designed to provide a comprehensive learning pathway in this subject area. While it delivers standalone value and practical skills, learners seeking a more integrated and in-depth progression may benefit from completing the full Specialization.
