      The image does not tell me much, but I have one question to make:

      What did you model this with? Are the "walls" and other such things done with AutoCad Architecture (or its predecessor, Architectural Desktop)?

      SketchUp cannot import the special "AEC" objects created by these "vertical" applications, so you would have to use the "Export to AutoCad" function in that application to export the model to a new file with the special objects translated into standard AutoCad 3D surfaces.

      Truthfully, it was probably created between both. I have AutoCAD Architecture at home among others which I use, and in college it's architectural desktop
