Search faster for 3D models in 3D Warehouse using SketchUp’s new AI-powered image search feature. Find, filter and download materials effortlessly to bring your design ideas to life, while enjoying a visually upgraded user interface in this latest update.
The world’s largest free 3D model library has received a significant upgrade! With a fresh, uniform interface across desktop, mobile, and web – including light and dark modes – 3D Warehouse is now more user-friendly than ever. One of the highlights is the brand-new AI-powered search feature, designed to streamline your workflow dramatically.
With 3D Warehouse Image Search, save precious design time. Take a photo or upload an image, place it in the search bar, and let SketchUp’s powerful AI find the perfect matches. Adding realistic textures and ready-made objects to your designs has never been this fast and intuitive!
Find 3D Models in Record Time
Streamline your design process by searching for 3D models with images instead of text in the 3D Warehouse search bar. Snap a photo of a chair in a showroom or a mood board, upload it to SketchUp’s powerful search engine, and let the AI quickly browse millions of ready-made models to find the perfect match.
"This is a real game-changer! I usually tell my clients to search for nice IKEA furniture because there are so many models in 3D Warehouse. With this update, I can simply import a Pinterest photo and search for the closest matching model!"
- Mauri Prosch, Virtual Reality Visualizer at Imagineering
Move faster from client approval to material specification – 3D Warehouse also searches for manufacturer products. Additionally, check out Live Components which can be parametrically adjusted to fit your design needs. With image-based searches, you’re no longer limited by keywords; break through language barriers and access the best models from around the globe.
Easily Source Materials
SketchUp goes beyond just 3D models – materials are now searchable, filterable, and directly downloadable under the Materials tab in 3D Warehouse. Easily find material and texture samples for use in SketchUp by searching with keywords. Simply type the name of the material in the search bar and click the Materials tab.
Access Your Favorites Anytime, Anywhere
Enjoy easy access to all your favourite products, models, catalogs, and collections on desktop, mobile, and web by logging in with your Trimble ID. Once you launch 3D Warehouse in a SketchUp project, all your collected content is instantly available, speeding up your workflow.
In Case You Missed It
Here are two existing powerful features you might have overlooked in 3D Warehouse:
- View augmented reality previews of simple models under 10 MB and 200,000 polygons. 3D Warehouse automatically converts your creations into USD and GLB formats and generates a shareable QR code. Let your audience experience your work with AR previews on Android or iOS. No high-tech devices or model exports are needed.
- Filter product and model search results by file size, polygon count, and file type. Enable specialized filters to focus on Dynamic Components, Live Components, or Geolocated models.
