There are 3 modules in this course

Transform 2D floor plans into detailed 3D architectural models with Autodesk Maya in this hands-on course designed for aspiring architectural visualizers and 3D modelers. You'll begin by importing and configuring floor plans, then build accurate wall structures using essential polygon modeling techniques such as vertex alignment, edge loop insertion, face extrusion, and geometry refinement.

As you progress, you'll create key architectural elements including window and door frames, balconies, kitchens, toilets, dining areas, and other interior spaces while maintaining clean, optimized geometry for architectural visualization. You'll also learn to enhance your models with realistic fixtures such as wooden frames, sliding doors, window grills, and sliding window panels to improve both functionality and visual appeal. By the end of the course, you'll be able to convert residential floor plans into complete, detailed 3D apartment layouts suitable for rendering and presentation. With a practical, project-based approach focused entirely on Autodesk Maya, this course helps you build professional architectural modeling skills through a structured workflow that takes you from foundational construction to polished interior detailing.

This comprehensive course guides learners through the entire process of creating detailed 3D architectural models using Autodesk Maya. Starting with the fundamentals of importing 2D floor plans and building accurate wall structures, learners will master essential polygon modeling techniques including vertex alignment, edge loops, and face extrusion. The course progresses to crafting detailed architectural elements such as window and door frames, balconies, kitchens, and common areas, focusing on both structural accuracy and aesthetic quality. Finally, learners will refine their models by adding realistic fixtures—wooden frames, sliding doors, window grills—enhancing functionality and visual appeal. Designed for aspiring architectural visualizers and 3D modelers, this course equips you with practical skills to translate floor plans into fully realized, detailed 3D apartment layouts ready for rendering and presentation.
