Congratulations to @daynaodow for creating a highly professional and accurate lighting plan for her diploma assignment iro @theinteriordesigninstitute!

Dayna has created a lighting plan using standard drawing conventions (border, title block, key, annotations, electrical & lighting symbols, wiring diagram) which, in real world scenarios, is used to support an Interior Designers decision making process in terms of lighting and electrical requirements and is also a vital document when communicating these requirements to Contractors/Electricians and clients.

Dayna has taken our Student Bundle course to learn how to create accurate and professional SketchUp floor plans/elevations, which are not only supporting her studies but will unquestionably support her future career as a professional Interior Designer.

Well done, Dayna!

I haven’t uploaded a watercolour illustration for a while and they bring such a lovely dollop of creativity to the table, so I thought I’d post one today.

It’s so important to take time out at the weekend (or whichever day you allocate!), to escape from the stresses and strains of daily business/family life.

This is equally as important when learning new skills like SketchUp. I’ve encountered so many instances where SketchUp Hub students have neglected to take regular breaks from their learning and they usually end up feeling frustrated or disheartened with their perceived lack of progress. You gotta take a step back and give your body and mind a break when learning something new! We can only digest a certain amount of information before we start to feel overwhelmed.

Take regular breaks!

This could be physically moving away from the computer to have a coffee, snuggling up in a comfy chair to read a book, tending to the care and maintenance of plants or watching a juicy documentary or movie.

Today I spent some time looking after my plants. I get such joy from watching them thrive and how they enhance the overall look of my space 🙂

How do you enjoy taking time out for you?! Let me know! 👇

I’ve seen it countless times over the years; Interior Designers using the wrong Style, having their geometry floating in space and not applying efficient workflows to their SketchUp processes.

These are all very common mistakes when you self-teach SketchUp and it’s one of the reasons I decided to create online SketchUp courses. It’s so important to understand and apply good practices and efficient workflow because they help you create accurate & precise floor plans/elevations and ensure professional results.

This means you SAVE TIME and produce drawings that are of a high standard.

I provided feedback to an Interior Designer from my FB Group today, and discussed the importance of Styles, the origin, Zoom Extents and oriented faces.

Here’s a clip but if you tap @sketchup_hub and click the link you can watch the full video. Lots of tips throughout to help you achieve accurate and professional results too!

Beautiful new side table added to our 3D model shop!

This is currently available to buy in reality in a range of reputable retailers including @coxandcox

It’s a modern piece, with a hint of Scandinavian styling and its selling point is definitely the chevron oak inlay.

More new 3D models will be added this week! Tap @sketchup_hub and click the link to access our online 3D model shop 🙂

I was kindly nominated a couple of times to post a black and white picture of myself under the #challengeaccepted hashtag. Initially, I thought this was about women supporting women and championing female empowerment but when I investigated this further, its origins are much more serious and shocking.

The #challengeaccepted hashtag was started, I believe, by women in Turkey, as a mark of protest to the continuing, unacceptable levels of violence against women in this country. And which have dramatically increased during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Whilst I acknowledge the inspiring and positive contribution of this hashtag among the female community, it’s important to remember its original purpose: to raise awareness of the injustices being experienced by women in Turkey (and further afield), to give these women a voice and to offer support in whatever way we can.

I can’t sit here and profess to being a champion of female empowerment and not do something meaningful to help these women. Female empowerment and supporting women is the underlying purpose of the SketchUp Hub. I feel a responsibility to do more than post a black and white photo of myself. I understand and appreciate that I have a lot to be grateful for in my life but many women aren’t in the same position.

Therefore, I’ve made a donation to Women’s Aid Federation NI (no Instagram account), @imecewomenscentre and @actionaiduk I tried to make a donation to @morcati_vakfi but unfortunately I couldn’t because I’m based in the UK.

I would urge anyone reading this to be aware of the REAL reason behind this movement and help to raise awareness or make a donation. Please refer to @auturkishculturalclub, where they have recently clarified the purpose of this hashtag and how you can help.

I'm always asked which software I use to create photo-real renders and one of my biggest tips when trying to produce authentic looking photo-realism, has nothing to do with software.

I recommend observing.

Look at images of interiors and how the light bounces off objects, and how shadows are cast. Study the properties of objects like glass, water, plastic, metal and various fabrics to see how they appear and interact with light. Observation is one of the most important aspects of creating photo-real renders and you can do this with so many things around you in your own interiors.

Robert De Niro is one of my most favourite actors. I noticed a few years ago that he generally 'underacted' in his movies. His body language, facial expressions and tone were usually very subtle. And in my mind, this made his acting incredibly natural. It's the same for photo-real renders. Try not to over-emphasise reflections, lighting or aspects of the geometry. By keeping things subtle, you'll be more successful at creating an authentic looking, natural render.
