Class introduction

This is an introductory course for those new to SketchUp 2025.

Follow short lessons from installation to basic operation, drawing import, modeling, output, and AI rendering

Learn the 'full flow' by hand.

Unfamiliar terms are reduced, the results are clear, and even non-majors get an easy completion experience.

Start working in a variety of ways, such as hand sketching, measuring, and importing a drawing.

Complete the framework of the space by directly drawing the wall, floor, and ceiling structures.

You can even learn how to use shortcuts to develop efficient modeling habits.

The LAYOUT function completes floor plans, elevations, and output drawings.

Beyond basic drawings, you can enjoy realistic results with AI rendering.

Complete your own portfolio with comprehensive learning that connects from basics to practice.

3 reasons this class is special

❶ Fully customised flow for beginners

It provides a learning route that connects “once and for all” from initial installation to completion of the first model. Each lesson consists of 5 to 15 minutes to follow, reducing unfamiliar terms and letting you learn hand movements first. It's a step-by-step checklist and example file that leaves only the essentials, and is designed so you don't lose the flow on your own.

❷ Minimal results linked to practice

Create your own small-scale space with walls, floors, windows, and doors, and experience results that can actually be delivered by printing the floor and elevation along with the dimensions in the layout. Course templates and recommended standards are provided and can be applied immediately, and practical connectivity has been enhanced by guiding a “what to do next” roadmap after taking the course.

❸ Taste the latest trends in 2025

Based on the SketchUp 2025 interface, you can enjoy the latest workflow by simply experiencing AI-based rendering. Increase motivation by comparing results with a few buttons without complicated settings, and learn basic management methods such as tags, scenes, and groups together to create a foothold for extended learning such as V-Ray and D5.

Notes before taking the course

This course focuses on “introductory tastings.” Rather than detailed detailing or advanced rendering settings, it was designed to experience a short cycle of installation → basic operation → modeling → output. We provide practice files and checklists. Based on SketchUp 2025, we recommend using a mouse with wheels and a Windows/Mac PC.
