Sketchfab is the world’s most expansive 3D library. The 3D modeling platform enables creators to publish, share, discover, buy and sell 3D, VR, and AR content. Creatives can display their environments across VR, Web, and Mobile. Sketchfab remains accessible as thousands of their assets come at no cost.
With the new Sketchfab integration, Spatians can customize their spaces by importing any of the nearly 1 million free Creative Commons-licensed assets in Sketchfab’s library. This collaboration helps to empower the community to create unique, personalized virtual spaces that can be used to host events like exhibitions, live concerts, film screenings, scavenger hunts, community meetups, and more.
This monumental partnership gives so many the access to express and customize their spaces as 3D builders. Simultaneously, the collaboration gives increased utility and new social purpose to the thousands of environments on Sketchfab!
Sketch Your Space Design Challenge
To celebrate the integration, we want to highlight and support our talented community! We’ve teamed up with Sketchfab to create the “Sketch Your Space Design Challenge”, a 3D building and designing competition.
The challenge is grouped into two tiers–prizes include $5,000 USD cash, 1 free year of Spatial+, Sketchfab Premium and more. The theme is to design your dream space. No need to obey the laws of physics or even reason in your world. Unlocking your creativity is the mission–we want to see what an extension of you in a 3D space looks like!
The deadlines for both tiers are November 10th and 17th, 2022. Anyone can enter, submit at the link below.
