New to Enscape for SketchUp?

Enscape is a real-time rendering and virtual reality extension for SketchUp, meaning you can design, render, and visualize in one integrated workflow.

How can Enscape help your SketchUp design process?

  • With Enscape, it’s possible to start visualizing your SketchUp model in the earliest phases of design. The white mode rendering option enables visualization of the project with a minimum level of detail. This simplified rendering function makes it easy to visually communicate data without information that may pose as a distraction.
  • Enscape can help with basic forms of analysis, such as viewsheds, shading, and solar radiation exposure. 
  • You can quickly explore ideas and experiment with massing and orientation. You can see how the time of day affects your project, try different lighting options, and experiment with different materials and assets.
  • It’s quick and easy to create high-quality rendered images, animations and export panoramas and standalone files. You can also walk around your project on-screen or in virtual reality without leaving SketchUp.
  • Communicating your story and vision becomes easier with the range of creatives and exports available, ensuring everyone is on the same page. Your clients understand every corner of your design and can provide faster and better-informed feedback. 

I have found that Enscape's real-time engine creates a memorable impression with our clients. Clients and designers will have the ability to make decisions in meetings quickly with a fully immersive virtual reality experience.
