Google SketchUp Pro 7.1 - Google's Design Package for Designers!

SketchUp is 3D for everyone.

Google SketchUp is software that you can use to create, modify and share 3D models. It's easier to learn than other 3D modeling programs, which is why so many people are already using it. We designed SketchUp's simplified toolset, guided drawing system and clean look-and-feel to help you concentrate on two things: getting your work done as efficiently as possible, and having fun while you're doing it.

You can choose from two versions of our software. Google SketchUp is free for anyone, and allows you to build, view and edit 3D models. Google SketchUp Pro adds the ability to share your data with other software, get email technical support, and create professional presentations—both print and digital—from your models. You can download both versions of SketchUp right from this website.

Good software is software you can learn quickly and easily. Even the most powerful tool is useless if you can't figure out how to make it work. Most people get rolling with SketchUp in a couple of hours. Video tutorials, an extensive Help Center and live training classes mean that anyone who wants to make 3D models with SketchUp, can.

Typing is a lousy way to draw. Building 3D models is tricky enough without having to think like a computer. Instead of making you input coordinates, SketchUp has an advanced guidance system of colors, lines and text hints that help you keep track of where you are and what you're doing.

No software is an island. People use software from many different companies, and they expect it all to work together. You can use SketchUp with all your favorite programs.

Hunting for tool icons is a bad idea. When it comes to user interface design, less is definitely more. SketchUp has a minimum of tools that each do a multitude of things. This makes it easier to learn, easier to use and—most importantly—easier to remember how to use.

You shouldn't need a bank loan to buy software. Truly accessible tools aren't just easy to learn—they're easy to afford. SketchUp is available in two flavors: Google SketchUp 7.1, which is a free download, and Google SketchUp Pro 7.1, which includes LayOut 2 and StyleBuilder tools for working with other programs and creating professional presentations from your models.
