I am a new designer, I want to use the branded furniture from Wayfair and other stores in my 3D model of the space. I want to create a 3D rendered model of the space using the selected furniture. For the selected items, I couldn’t find the 3D model in their 3D warehouse (e.g. Wayfair 3Dwarehouse). How to find a 3D model for these items?
Any help is appreciated.
If it’s not available in the 3D Warehouse, you might check with the manufacturer. There are some other sites that offer SketchUp models like FormFonts and there are a few sites that might offer the furniture models in some other format that you could import into SketchUp. If they don’t have it, you might have to model it yourself or you might consider hiring someone else to do it.
Thank you
3.5 years later, is there a better answer to this subversively simple question?
It seems simple enough that we send dimensions, 2 photos, and a fabric swatch graphic to a render farm and get back a 3D Sketchup model…for under a buck?
That’d be nice. Would you work that cheap?
Your profile says you are using “Free Plan” of SketchUp 2020. I suppose that’s a cracked version so you could afford to work that cheap.
It is possible, but you likely get what you pay for… with the info you described I could probably knock out a passable furniture in less than an hour… based on current rates and overhead, that would likely be between $50 and $100. I do not know how or where you could find design services that would charge anywhere near $1 per hour.

Thanks, Aaron. I am currently trialing https://app.interiorflow.co/ - It renders pretty nice room designs based on some half dozen variables and a notes field. It’s $30 a month for something like 250 renders, roughly a dime. Seems like if they can render an entire room for a dime, that I should be able to get a piece of furniture rendered for a buck.
It looks to me that a lot of these processes are being automated. The AI is no longer coming, it is here.
I am too ignorant to know what was involved in 3D rendering of furniture.
But my technology intuitions and skills were accurate enough to allow me to deliver multimillion dollars of business value with my systems and PM multiple times.
I think that what I asking for is well within the realm of reality, and only a matter of finding it.
For fun, here are 3 redos by interiorflow of a HI room, in 3 different styles, coastal, bohemian, and mid-Century.
