New SketchUp extension to help architects transform design concepts into data-rich BIM models


BIM software startup, Skema, has introduced a new integration with SketchUp aimed at helping designers make use of SketchUp’s early-stage design capabilities to drive BIM workflows and Revit deliverables.

The integration allows designers to start massing in SketchUp, move into Skema for ‘block-and-stack’ planning, and return to SketchUp for design exploration of facades, rendering, energy use, lighting, and more.

According to the developers, Skema’s ‘BIM in Minutes’ feature allows users to move their designs into Revit at the push of a button, ready for construction documentation.

“We’re working to bridge the gap between SketchUp and a firm’s existing BIM workflows within Revit,” said Richard Harpham, co-founder of Skema. “The new Skema for SketchUp extension empowers architects to transform their initial design concepts into precise, data-rich BIM models faster—reducing rework, data loss, and coding.”

Skema for SketchUp is available now for $349/year.
