3D Home & Garden Design in SketchUp

SketchUp House Modeling & Garden Design
We are looking for an experienced SketchUp architect/designer for a two-part project covering our detached residential property in the Netherlands. Both deliverables must be produced in SketchUp. Please read both sections carefully and include your approach and relevant portfolio work in your proposal.

Part 1 — Detailed 3D House Model
We require a highly accurate and detailed SketchUp model of our existing home, suitable for producing high-quality internal 3D renders.

What we'll provide:
Floor plans and/or architectural drawings
Key dimensions and room layouts
Reference photos (interior and exterior)

Model requirements:
Accurate dimensions throughout — walls, ceiling heights, room proportions
Full exterior modelling including roof, facade, and window/door placement
Detailed interior elements, including at minimum:
All windows and doors (correct sizing and swing direction)
Kitchen layout and cabinetry
Staircases
Bathrooms/sanitary fixtures
Built-in storage and structural features

Sufficient interior detail to support realistic 3D rendering (materials, textures, light openings)
Clean, organised layer/tag structure for ease of use

Deliverable: One complete SketchUp file (.skp), compatible with SketchUp Pro 2022 or later.

Part 2 — Garden Design (Two Concept Designs)
We are looking for a creative and functional garden design for our 415m² plot. The project will begin with an intake conversation to align on our preferences, style, budget constraints, and priorities before any design work begins.

Process:
Intake call — video or written Q&A to discuss vision, preferences, must-haves, and style references
Two distinct design concepts developed based on the intake, offering meaningfully different layout approaches or aesthetics
Both concepts modelled in SketchUp and presented with top-down layout views and at minimum one 3D perspective per concept. The garden design should fit the location climate and needs to be constructable within a ~40k budget.

Required elements in both designs:
- Garden house / outbuilding
- Vegetable garden
- Sauna
- Cold plunge / ice bath
- Lounge area
- Lawn/grass area

Deliverables:
Two SketchUp files (.skp), one per concept
Basic materials/textures applied for visual clarity
A brief written description per concept explaining the layout logic, design choices and cost estimates for each element.


Proposal Requirements
Please include the following in your application:

Relevant portfolio examples (SketchUp house models and/or garden/landscape designs)
Your proposed workflow and timeline for each part
Whether you are quoting for Part 1, Part 2, or both
Your rate structure (fixed price preferred)

We are happy to discuss the scope in more detail before agreeing on a quote. Looking forward to hearing from experienced candidates.
