Why has SketchUp made such a splash in the architecture world?

If you ask our users there seems to be a consistent theme in their answers. Our goal is to give you the best possible tool for bringing your designs to life. We admit it, we are 3D nuts and we want others to experience the power and excitement-- not just the young guns out of school or the computer geeks -- everyone! SketchUp was built on the philosophy that a small, powerful toolset that did it's best to capture the spirit of drawing, would be the most effective way of enabling designers to express themselves -- without constraints.

We want to get software 'out of the way' of the design process.

We also know that everyone has a different work flow; everyone has different ways of expressing themselves. That is why SketchUp was created as a tool to work in your process. If you want to use SketchUp to do rough massing which you then print out and sketch over - fantastic. If you want to make a detailed model and walk the client through your design -- perfect. If you want to pass your work off to your favorite CAD system to create CD's -- no problem. We will not tell you how or what to design -- we are just here to help you.

We certainly understand all the standard business motivations for justifying a software purchase -- improved design time, dollars saved, minimal training, etc. but here is one you don't hear too often and we think it is just as important as the rest -- fun! SketchUp is a blast!Enough from us, what are the users saying....

"SketchUp has, I have to say changed my life. Sounds dramatic but true, I have rediscovered my profession because I can design so quickly"
Andrew Lemon, WS Atkins - Abu Dhabi

"Just in a year and a half It has saved us thousands of hours and transformed the way we work. Congratulations on the best design tool ever."
John Elliott, AA Dipl RIBA , Senior VP, WATG

"Those in our office who are using SketchUp are somewhat flabbergasted that software can be really fun AND really useful AND really productive."
Victor Kolouch, Architectural Designer

"SketchUp is the finest (and most innovative) tool available for anyone designing anything from coffeepots to skyscrapers. In my office, it's approaching indispensable."
Lacy McCall, McCall & Associates
