Aspiring Architect - Gloat

[Rich Konopka]

My 14 year old daughter Kate is a sketchup wiz. She is an aspiring architect and loves sketchup and will design houses on it. I'm blown away at the details of her homes, components, furnishings, etc... She posted one of her designs on the sketchup warehouse.

I can't even compete with her skills on sketchup.

Cheers

Rich, that is great. She put a lot of detail into that drawing. Give an atta girl for me. Looks like she's got a pretty good handle on drawing in 3D.

If you want to add a little to her skills, show her how to make groups of things and then move those groups to other layers. That will make it easier for her to make changes and to add things like the furniture. She can turn off various layers to hide things like the roof to make working inside easier.

Wow! She did a nice job.

The girls, especially Nastia, have been watching me work with SketchUp! for our home addition project. They are fascinated by the Orbit function. I'm hoping that one or both of them will learn how to use the software someday.

Wow this is great. I tried doing a hand plane in SU the other day - without nearly as much success to report.

She's doing great! My 4yo is enamored with Sketchup as well. She was "playing Sketchup" the other day when my parents and a couple of my brothers were visiting. My brothers where giving my dad a hard time about her knowing it better than my dad.

WOW. Great work. I really like all of the detail in the rooms. My daughter is an architect and does a lot of 3D work. Continue encouraging your daughter to be an architect. My daughter really loves it.
