We have a new course offering that is very suited for architects / engineers / CAD operators /interior designers / graphic artists / animators etc. and for those who are simply interested in using the computer as a design tool. You might be interested to learn it. Pls. Read :

SketchUp, whose award-winning toolset was developed to help design buildings, is a modeling software that empowers designers to explore complex design ideas in 3D. Developed for the conceptual stages of design, SketchUp is powerful yet EASY TO LEARN 3D software. It is the pencil of digital design. This award-winning software combines a SIMPLE, yet robust tool-set that streamlines and simplifies 3D design.

SketchUp is used by design firms of every size, from sole-proprietors to some of the world’s largest AEC firms. SketchUp is used predominately on the front-end of the design process where designs are in a fluid and tentative state.

Architects and Engineers use SketchUp for:
“Sketching” 3D building models to win projects
Communicating design ideas with project teams and/or clients
3D “walk-throughs”
Design presentations
Massing model development
Urban planning and design
With it you can quickly create realistic buildings, massing models, street furniture, utilities, cars, people, terrain, pretty much anything in 3D.

INTERIOR DESIGN
Interior designers generally focus on the “soft” finishes of a building. SketchUp’s ability to study the effects of light, and experiment with colors and textures are powerful tools for communicating with clients. Many people, most in-fact, just don't understand 2D drawings, especially when it comes to designing interiors. 3D is critical to help clients interpret interior spaces. 2D drawings are helpful when constructing a building, but fall short when trying to help a client understand what a space will look like. SketchUp brings designs to life.

Interior Designers use SketchUp for:
Space planning
Communicating design ideas with project teams and/or clients
Interior and exterior shadow studies
Real time color composition
Material & texture comparisons & analysis
Populating interior spaces with high quality entourage

LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE
Landscape Architects use SketchUp for:
Creating compelling 3D concept models to win projects
Urban planning and design
Creating “walk-throughs”
Client and planning presentations
Evaluating light conditions with real-time shadows
