Ten advanced modeling tutorials in SketchUp

SketchUp is one of the most widely used digital modeling software programs in both professional practice and academia—and undoubtedly the most intuitive. However, the ease of creating orthogonal geometries can quickly turn into a nightmare when the goal is to design curved and organic shapes and objects.

With this in mind, Gabriel Chahoud of Chahoud Cursos released 30 video tutorials for what he called "SketchUp Month," sharing tips on how to model objects that, at first glance, seem complex to create in this software.

Below, we have selected 10 of the 30 videos, which offer tips on how to model curved ramps, roofs, organic objects, and even how to generate cost estimates directly in SketchUp.
