What these recordings cover

SketchUp Afternoon is Nordic BIM Group Finland's annual event for SketchUp users, both those getting started with the tool and experienced users looking to go deeper. The 2026 edition brings three perspectives: a creative interior design case study, a product engineering workflow and a technical overview of what is new in SketchUp 2026.

Emilia Åman of Emilia Karenina walks through the design process behind the KARE panel, a custom sauna ceiling element she modelled and developed using SketchUp. Pekka Tuominen from Nordic BIM Group covers the new features and AI tools in SketchUp 2026. Markus Wuoti of Antti-Teollisuus shows how the company designs grain dryer assemblies using SketchUp and LayOut.
