Using SketchUp to model Tiny Homes

I created a SketchUp model of the Tiny Homes at Sound Foundations NW, where they recently built their 500th Tiny Home. Amazing achievement!

Here are some screenshots of the model compared to real life construction:

And an animation of how a Tiny Home is built using the SketchUp model. This was fun to learn how to do!

I’ve really enjoyed building this model in SketchUp – It’s a great way to flex my love of details, modelling things of unusual size (see chocolate bars), and getting to build something. We’ll be using it to help create some manuals with 3D instructions for tilting up all 4 walls, and getting the roof structure on the house.
