Designing in 3D with Google SketchUp
All designing and drawing at HotWax`Furniture is done using Google SketchUp, a three dimensional design programme that allows full visualization and calculation before a piece of wood is cut. Every last detail of construction, joinery and hardware is realized virtually in 3D. From this a very accurate calculation of the volume of wood and number of screws, hinges etc. is obtained, and accurate and realistic pricing is the result. The designs can then be rendered and textured and placed in virtual locations, even in Google Earth if desired, for the customer to fully visualize the products pre-production. We use a programme called Kerkythea to produce photorealistic images from our Google SketchUp drawings. Both these programmes are free to download. The ability to use these modern tools relates especially to one off and commercial projects. Some examples follow.
