The hardest part about learning a new software is overcoming the learning curve and knowing you will be confident within the software once completed. Rest assured, this course is designed to teach you a method to repeatedly use on all future landscape projects to create 2D & 3D drawings.

This course is structured to teach a complete beginner of Rhino 3D the ins and outs of what’s important in the software if you’re a landscape designer. All tutorials focus on landscape design and cuts out the general use of the program. However, the course is also designed to enhance the knowledge and speed of an intermediate landscape designer who already uses Rhino as it provides individual tutorials on Rhino commands that you may not have used before (which speeds up the design and modeling process).

During the course, practice on a real-life property and cover:

• Creating accurate basemaps of the existing site

• Using Google Earth and exporting images

• Importing PDF's, .jpegs, blocks and more

• Functional design and diagramming by sketching

• Landscape concept generation from core principles of landscape architecture

• Setting up and saving camera views for rendering

• Building and modeling 3D landscapes and detail

By the end of this course, you will understand Rhino 3D and how to use it for landscape design. The course and sequential videos will be the foundation to all of your future landscape plans.
