Join Joseph Kim as he explores some of the solutions he has developed to help you to help others to see your design vision before you have it finished! The tips and tricks learned from this session are sure to streamline your design process and make design discussions easier. You'll discover: - The use cases and the importance of design communication. - The benefits of conceptual rendering. - The different styles and processes of conceptual renderings in SketchUp. - Tips and tricks for producing conceptual renderings in SketchUp and Enscape. Webinar Content ## What to Expect - ### Use Cases Understand the use cases for conceptual rendering and the importance of design communication. - ### Tips and Tricks Learn tips and tricks for producing conceptual renderings in SketchUp and Enscape. ## Presenters - Joseph Kim Project Manager  •  MJM Architects An architectural designer who loves technology, Joseph always seeks ways to enhance the design process and actively shares his knowledge with the community.
