Style Builder
Style Builder is a companion tool for SketchUp, Trimble's 3D modelling and architectural visualisation software. It allows users to create and manage custom visual styles — including edge styles, face colours, transparency settings and rendering presets — that can be applied to SketchUp models to change their appearance for presentations, documentation and design communication. The app targets architects, designers and 3D modellers who want fine-grained control over how their models are displayed without modifying the underlying geometry.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionStyle Builder is a legacy SketchUp companion tool associated with the 2019 product line. There is no public information available confirming an Apple Silicon native build, and SketchUp's own development has moved significantly forward since 2019. Contact Trimble directly to ask whether Style Builder 2019 has any native Apple Silicon support planned, or whether you should migrate your custom styles to the current version of SketchUp — which may have integrated or evolved this functionality. Given that Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), if you rely on Style Builder for active work, you should resolve this within the next 2 years to avoid losing access to the tool when Intel builds stop launching.
