Latest Scan-To-Design Feature By SketchUp Makes Design Easy

Interior design is all about visualizing a space a long time before execution. The usual practice for any designer is to go to the site, get the measurements, draft an AutoCAD drawing and then import it into 3D visualization software. SketchUp is one of the most frequently used software for 3D modelling. Additionally, with the launch of Scan-to-Design by SketchUp for iPad, the process has become even simpler.
