SketchUp Pro is award-winning 3D design software made by professional modellers for use by anyone. Whatever your level of skill or experience, SketchUp Pro allows you to design accurate models in a matter of minutes.
3D modelling is the process of building an accurate graphical representation of objects. These 3D computer graphic models can be used for a range of purposes, from designing a complete building to mapping a specific object for use in animation.
3D modelling is an extremely important tool, allowing designers to check their creations before they enter production. 3D modelling software helps to reduce the overall cost of prototyping, allowing them to complete projects more quickly and accurately.
SketchUp is an excellent choice of 3D modelling software for both beginners and expert designers. Just starting out? You can build 3D models using nothing more than your web browser, completely free. You even get 10GB of free cloud storage for your models.
Looking for a professional modelling tool? SketchUp is available as a cost-effective subscription and includes a full desktop application to support more heavyweight designs and offline operations. You also benefit from unlimited cloud storage for your models.
