Making ideas real with SketchUp
2. November 2011
For the past decade, legions of
Google SketchUp
users have been quietly shaping the world around us. Two million professionals and hobbyists use this 3D modeling tool every week to design everything under the sun, including
houses
,
room layouts
,
movie sets
,
aquariums
,
bridges
,
robots
and
furniture
. They even
rebuild cities
. Chances are, even if you haven’t tried SketchUp yourself, you’ve witnessed, touched or walked inside something created by a SketchUp user.
We think it’s time these behind-the-scenes heroes get a well-deserved round of applause, so we’re starting the
Make Ideas Real
project.
Make Ideas Real
is about showcasing the intrepid inventors, designers and dreamers using SketchUp to bring their ideas to life.
If you’re a proud SketchUp modeler, please
share your story
with us. We’ll curate the work we receive for an online showcase launching in early 2012. Let’s show people everywhere how SketchUp users are changing the shape of our physical world.
