SketchUp + AI for Interior Designers (Live Online)

via CourseHorse

Overview

This series is built for interior designers who want to bring AI into their workflow while keeping SketchUp as the backbone of design and production. You’ll learn how to create fast, persuasive visuals in SketchUp and then with AI to sell ideas early, then refine and document those designs further in SketchUp and LayOut.

Why this course stands out

  • This course delivers a practical, end-to-end workflow: using AI for quick schematic visuals, then developing and producing accurate, client-ready documents in SketchUp and LayOut.

  • The difference is the focus on interior design workflows—organizing selections in Miro, testing and selling ideas with AI, refining with real components and finishes in SketchUp, and producing professional deliverables in LayOut.

  • You’ll leave with a toolkit designed specifically for the way interior designers work today—something you won’t find in generalized AI or SketchUp courses.

Model your space with walls, windows, and finishes. Organize selections and materials using Miro to streamline decision-making.

Session 2: Sell the Idea with AI

Use AI tools to quickly photocollage your SketchUp model into persuasive schematic visuals to get buy-in before development.

Session 3: Design Development in SketchUp

Refine the design by placing fixtures and furniture precisely, creating seamless textures, and sourcing quality components.

Session 4: Production & Client Documents

Create clean, scaled plans, elevations, and mood boards using a professional LayOut template for polished, client-ready packages.
