This specialization takes learners on a journey from mastering SketchUp fundamentals to advanced techniques in interior space planning, modeling, and rendering. The first course, SketchUp Fundamentals for Interior Space Planning, introduces essential tools and techniques for creating efficient and functional interior layouts. It lays the foundation by focusing on basic modeling and space planning strategies. The second course, Advanced Interior Modeling and Visualization for SketchUp, builds on this knowledge by guiding learners through more complex workflows. It explores techniques for creating intricate furniture models, applying custom materials, and enhancing the overall realism of designs. This course prepares learners to tackle detailed and realistic interior design projects. The final course, Professional Documentation and Rendering in SketchUp, teaches advanced skills for presenting designs professionally. Learners will gain expertise in creating polished documentation with SketchUp LayOut and producing photorealistic renderings using SU Podium. This course emphasizes the importance of communication and presentation in interior design. This Specialization is based on the book The SketchUp Handbook for Interior Design, by Rebecca Terpstra and Dana Hoffman.
