Nick Sonder's Keynote from the 2024 3d Summit - Design and Documentation: From Vision to Reality

Join Nick Sonder at the 2024 SketchUp 3D Summit as he shares his unique process for designing and constructing a home on a steep lot using SketchUp and LayOut. In this exclusive presentation, Nick walks through his multi-model approach to SketchUp, explaining how he manages complex section cuts, coordinates with contractors, and tackles real-world challenges like snow load and steep terrain. Architects and designers alike will gain valuable insights on handling large-scale residential projects, transitioning from AutoCAD, and maximizing the efficiency of SketchUp and LayOut for construction documentation.
