Photogrammetry to Furniture - Designing for the real world in Blender

by Paul Carroll | at Minnebar20

Sometimes string and cardboard aren’t enough to figure out a home improvement project. As a visual person I have found it extremely handy to use a couple of free tools to help visualize things before diving in. This started as a way for me to understand projects around my own house, but now it has transformed into a furniture business.

In this talk I will go over my process for taking a 3D scan of a space and prototyping with it in Blender. I'll also cover some of the pitfalls and rough edges you can encounter, and answer any questions about what's possible with these tools.

I designed and built websites for 15 years and now I design and build furniture. In my free time I also do illustration work, 3D animation & play music. I have three cats. Are you reading this bio? Nice.
