When most people think of Google Sketchup, a free 3D modeling software, they believe that this is a tool for creating something in 3D space.  The best thing about Sketchup is how easy it is to use it.

Most people start modeling without a lot of training and make complex models in a very short time.

The greatest potential of Sketchup is that you can analyze the relationships between the models you make. Suppose you want to buy new furniture for your home, but aren’t sure how it will fit in with existing furniture.

With Sketchup, you can create rooms and search for 3D furniture stores for your current needs. If you can’t find it, you can also make furniture models.

Once you have “digital” rooms and furniture, you can move items to Sketchup to see how they fit together. It’s better you have to move physical furniture all day, right? This way you can check dimensions and distances accurately.

You can also use the photo-matching tool in Sketchup to take room photos and import them into Sketchup. With various alignment handles, you can then align the perspective view of your model so that it matches the perspective of the image.

This then basically covers your model with an image and creates an excellent visual image of the room. Sketchup can give your model a shadow.
