Interior designers carefully design all the details of a space by considering how it will be lived in.

3D MODELLER

This design professional uses digital tools to manipulate shapes and produce finished files ready for use by machines for cutting, extrusion, and stereolithography. 3D modelling requires an in-depth understanding of the software, which allows a company to optimise its internal resources.
