Today we're going to design and model a Living room Sofa. I always create my designs first on paper, but once I transfer the ideas into sketchup, the design often evolves, sometimes changing considerably.
Plugins I use in this video are:
FredoCorner
Weld
VertexTools
Curviloft
Vray for Sketchup
This video is a part of the 3D concept furniture series. If you want to check out the rest of the series, click here: • 3D Concept Furniture
If you want to follow along with all the steps, and recreate this exact model yourself, I suggest you set the speed of the video to 0,5. That way you can follow the tutorial with no problem. But If you’re just here for the speed build timelapse, just sit back and enjoy the video as is, or you can even double the speed.
In the lower right corner of your screen you can see what I’m typing but beware, I don’t use Sketchup default shortcuts as you’ll probably notice, but I’ll list all my custom shortcuts bellow.
Shortcuts:
Ctrl+1 - Select tool
Ctrl+Q - Draw line
Shift+A - Draw arc
Ctrl+W - Mirror tool (plugin)
Ctrl+Shift+X - Move tool
Ctrl+Shift+A - Offset tool
Ctrl+R (or R) - Rotate tool
Alt+Y - Hidden geometry (on/off)
Ctrl+D - Tape measure
S - Scale tool
E - Eraser
C - Draw circle
Y - Draw rectangle
V - Paint bucket (Alt - Eyedrop tool)
A - Push pull
The rendering is done with Vray plugin for sketchup, but I keep it extremely simple. I just decrease the intensity of the light, increase the size of the sun to get that soft shadows effect and work around refraction and reflection of the materials.
If you happen to like this video I kindly ask you to click the like button and to check out the other videos of this series and consider subscribing to this channel. I’d really appreciate it and It would help me a lot.
Thank you for watching and I’ll talk to you in the next one!!

First couple of years of learning Sketchup, I didnt even know Extensions existed, so I dont think is necessary, but I think they are very very useful. But dot worry about it. Learn at your own pace and when there is something that you want to model and dont know how to do it with native tools, there is a high probability there is an extension for that, so google it.
