If you've ever looked at SketchUp's plans and thought, “Okay… but what do I actually get in each one?” you're not alone. In this guide, I'll break down the main SketchUp tiers in plain language

If firing up SketchUp for the first time feels like trying to speak Italian when you’ve only ever spoken German, you're not wrong.

Short answer yes. The long answer is still yes, SketchUp is free in the form of a website.

My 1st encounter was in 2008 towards the middle of my bachelor’s degree in Architecture & Building Engineering. Frustrated with the lack of visualisation strength within AutoCAD at the time, SketchUp was a wonderful alternative and became a favourite tool on the virtual toolbelt.
