A SketchUp extension that actually saves hours on interior design projects

We’ve been testing AD Design lately for interior design workflows on SketchUp, and I thought it might interest some people here working on production-oriented projects.

It’s a plugin suite focused on speeding up repetitive tasks like:

  • walls & openings
  • cabinetry/furniture creation
  • stairs
  • interior detailing
  • duplication/alignment workflows

The idea isn’t really to replace modeling, but more to reduce the amount of manual operations during project development.

What’s interesting is that it seems built around real interior architecture and woodworking workflows rather than generic modeling tools.

We currently offer a 1-week free trial, so it’s easy to test on an actual project and see if it fits your process.

Curious to know if some of you already use it in production environments.

Just a heads-up for the community: avoid installing the SketchUp 2026-1-256-82 update on Mac for now.

Several users are reporting technical issues after updating (bugs, instability, slow performance…).

👉 If you’re working on active projects, it’s safer to stick with your current version until an official fix is released.

If anyone has found workarounds or solutions, feel free to share them below 👇

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a conference we recently recorded about AI and SketchUp, and how the two can actually work together in a practical way.

In this session, we explore:

  • How AI can enhance your projects with assisted renders
  • Quickly testing different visual styles in seconds
  • Where AI really helps… and where it doesn’t
  • How to stay in control of your creative process

The talk is led by Pierre Broca, a SketchUp user for 19 years and trainer for 10, very active on the SketchUp forum and recognized as a SketchUp Sage. He brings a grounded, experience-based perspective on how these tools are evolving.

This conference was recorded during our annual Totally SketchUp event, where 150 professionals gathered to share ideas, experiment, and push the limits of SketchUp.

More replays from the event are coming soon!

Curious to hear how you’re using AI in your SketchUp workflow 👇
