How to Create a Floor Plan in SketchUp

[a2theo]

Do you ever need to create a floor plan for a client? As you probably know, LayOut is a great tool for the job… but what if you just needed to do a quick floor plan using only SketchUp? We’ve just released a new YouTube video and in it we’ve shared a technique from a paid course we teach. Watch and you’ll avoid problems people run into when learning how to create a professional floor plan with SketchUp.

Inside the video, we cover how to:

• Choose the best template to start your floor plan

• Draw the floor shape, exterior walls and interior walls from field measurements

• Organize your floor plan using Groups and Layers

• Create your own 2D symbols for windows and doors

• Import 2D symbols for things like furniture and fixtures

• Turn your floor plan into a professional-looking PDF to share with clients

Plus, we share a starter 2D symbols library you can use on your next floor plan.

When you get a chance, watch the video and then be sure to let me know if you have any questions or feedback. Thanks!
