How to Export from Sketchup to Revit Quickly and Easily + Common Issues – Export from Sketchup and Import in Revit.
This quick Sketchup and Revit tutorial will teach you how to quickly and easily export any 3D Sketchup model and import the file into Revit.
Architectural drawings such as plans, sections and elevations are generally to scale. Learn how to scale any architectural drawing in Adobe Photoshop to any scale you want (1:50, 1:100, 1:200 or other).
Create 3D models of terrain, contours and topography using accurate data from Google Earth using Sketchup and Rhino. THE MOST UNDERRATED SITE MODELLING TOOL EVER.
In this Sketchup and Rhino tutorial, you’ll learn how to model a 3D site in less than 60 seconds.
It involves geo-locating a site from Google Earth in Sketchup, and then transferring that model to Rhinoceros 3D to create a NURBS surface 3D model of the chosen site.
This is something I’ve only just discovered after spending 2 hours+ modelling a site from referencing a contour map – and thought – surely there’s a better way to do this.
Sure enough, Sketchup and Rhino have a solution.
I hope you find this helpful!

Happy New Year! Today I explain how to set yourself up for success as a student in the new year.
Specifically, I’ll talk about:
• How to review 2019 in order to learn from your wins and losses
• How to plan for the new year
• How to identify what success is, how to achieve it and when to achieve it.
On today’s episode, I compare the traditional skills you need (or may not need) to study architecture with some skills I think will really take your abilities to a whole new level. A lot of students ask me if they have had to learn mathematics, chemistry, physics, art or computer skills to be able to study architecture. In this episode, I hopefully clear up some misconceptions that students might have.
Specifically, I’ll talk about:
• Do you need to be good at math to study architecture?
• Do you need to be good at science to study architecture?
• Do you need to be good at art or hand drawing to study architecture?
• Do you need to be good at technology / IT / CAD to study architecture?
• What skills are actually important to learn to succeed in architecture or architecture school?
• Management of time, budget and people
• Communication/social/people skills
I run through the things I wish I knew before and while in my first year of Architecture school.
Specifically, I’ll talk about:
• How to not fall behind with work
• Avoiding the temptation of giving into the judgement of others
• Learning from your mistakes
• Not getting “stuck” – tips for not getting distracted and wasting time.
On today’s episode, I talk through some of my reasoning behind why I don’t care about my grades in architecture school.
Specifically, I’ll talk about:
• Learning from your grades
• The best lessons in life aren’t from your successes, but your failures
• Pushing yourself into new challenges, outside of your comfort zone.
• Caring about the opinions of others
On the podcast, you’ll hear from practicing architects, other successful students and myself, Kyle, a third year architecture student from South Australia.
Doing so, you’ll learn the tips and tricks to excel past the rest of your cohort and build the skills needed to take your work to another level.
On today’s episode, I welcome you on to the podcast for our very first episode! I’m super fired up to be starting the show and I’m glad you’ve decided to join me on the journey.
