SketchUp Pro for Landscape Architecture
SketchUp Pro is software for creating and presenting professional 3D models. Landscape Architecture firms use SketchUp Pro to quickly and effectively communicate 3D ideas and information, enhancing collaboration, reducing inefficiencies and solving design problems.
"As a senior level designer, I just don't have the time in my day to fully learn and effectively use complex 3D CAD tools. SketchUp has allowed me to intuitively and quickly create fully 3D preliminary design studies in a very short time period. I find it to be an ideal front-end design tool."
Visit the Landscape Architecture image gallery and check out some case studies from Landscape Architecture customers.
