Hello,
My name is Cait. I am a third year Interior Design student at Northern Arizona University. I’m passionate about interior design, with a strong focus on architectural drafting. I enjoy creating detailed plans and designs that bring spaces to life through precise and thoughtful drafting.
A Thoughtful Sort is my passion project where I can combine all my interests and talents into one place.

Utilizing SketchUp Animation
Here is some background information that will help clarify and explain some topics regarding CAD and it's most common uses
CAD, or Computer-Aided Design and Drafting (CADD), is technology that enables creators to design, draft, and produce technical documentation digitally, replacing traditional hand-drawn techniques.
CAD is used in fields like architecture, engineering, interior design, and manufacturing for tasks such as drafting building plans, designing machinery, creating product prototypes, and developing detailed construction documents
Some of the most common include
Most popular include AutoCAD, Revit, SolidWorks, CATIA, SketchUp, Fusion 360, Rhino, MicroStation, Inventor, and BricsCAD.
Autodesk, Revit, and Sketchup will be further elaborated below
Autodesk's AutoCAD is most commonly used for creating detailed 2D and 3D drawings and designs in various fields such as architecture, engineering, and construction.
It is widely utilized for drafting floor plans, building layouts, technical schematics, and detailed illustrations.
Autodesk's Revit is used to create detailed 3D architectural models, allowing designers to visualize and plan buildings accurately, including floor plans, elevations, sections and 3D views.
Most commonly used for Architecture, Engineering, and Construction
Trimble Inc.'s SketchUp is most commonly used for creating 3D models in architecture, interior design, and landscape architecture.
Its intuitive interface and powerful modeling tools make it popular for conceptual design, visualizing spaces, and generating detailed architectural renderings.
