Скачать или смотреть SketchUp Wooden Terrace Ceiling – Grid Structure & Integrated Lighting Preparation

This video is part of the course
“Interior Design Course: SketchUp Modeling + Enscape & Twinmotion Rendering (Beginner to Pro)”.
It completes the terrace composition by adding a wooden ceiling cover prepared for integrated lighting.

🔹 What this lesson is about
In this lesson, you design a wooden ceiling cover that visually and functionally finishes the terrace.
The focus is on:
• defining the ceiling footprint using reference geometry
• creating a wooden frame and internal grid
• organizing panels for a clean architectural rhythm
• reserving openings and backing surfaces for integrated lighting
This approach ensures the terrace ceiling works as a designed architectural element, not just decoration.
