By the end of this course, learners will be able to plan, design, model, and visualize a complete 3D landscape garden using SketchUp and V-Ray. Learners will develop the ability to interpret project requirements, construct accurate outdoor layouts, apply landscaping components, and produce photorealistic renders suitable for professional presentation.

This hands-on, case study–driven course guides learners through a real-world landscape garden project from concept to final render. Starting with project planning and layout design, learners progressively build a detailed 3D landscape model using SketchUp’s core tools and component libraries. The course then transitions into visualization, where learners apply V-Ray materials, lighting, and environment settings to enhance realism and mood. What makes this course unique is its end-to-end workflow approach, combining practical modeling techniques with professional rendering strategies in a single cohesive project. Learners gain industry-relevant skills by working on a realistic landscape scenario, making this course ideal for architects, landscape designers, 3D artists, and SketchUp users who want to elevate their outdoor design and visualization capabilities.
