I’m James Ogston — I help designers, architects, and creators turn imagination into build-ready reality.
Without tech overwhelm or wasted hours, I guide you through proven 3D pathways that transforms confusion into clarity and ambition into professional mastery — empowering you to design smarter, faster, and with lasting confidence. 

Today, I support architects, interior designers, technologists, Garden and Landscape Designers, creatives, and artists worldwide as a 3D CAD coach, visualisation consultant, and authorised SketchUp trainer & reseller.

My career path has spanned eight architectural practices, house builders, and construction companies—giving me hands-on knowledge of every stage in the design and construction process. I’ve also worked as an accredited Autodesk applications engineer and trainer, before becoming one of the first officially accredited SketchUp trainers with @Last Software (SketchUp’s original creators), later with Google, and now with Trimble as a UK SketchUp Partner and Authorised Training Centre.

Along the way, I’ve been trusted by global brands, including direct consultancy to Google, delivering accredited and bespoke SketchUp coaching with solid design support and user fault-finding to their own international clients.

What makes my coaching different?

It’s not just theory — it’s project-driven training, built around real deadlines.
I bring decades of practical AEC experience to every session.
I help you solve 3D frustrations and workflow pain points, giving you clarity, speed, and confidence.

If you’re ready to transform your workflow, sharpen your 3D communication, and get professional results — let’s do it together.
