About Holygon
Our story
Holygon is a Swedish 3D modelling and software company based in the thousand-year old city of Lund, close to Malmö and Copenhagen.
In 2013, Felix Heuman presented his childhood friend Anders Lyhagen with a drawing, challenging him to reproduce it in 3D. They soon discovered that they could combine their individual aesthetic and technical skills to shape high quality designs.
They decided to start a business, selling services based on advanced 3D modelling and custom 3D tool programming. Together, they founded Holygon.
Today, Holygon produces world-class public and custom Sketchup extensions, Sketchup 3D models, as well as 3D-printed scale models of landscapes, cities and architecture, for discerning clients worldwide. Holygon also holds appreciated lectures and courses on the craft of Sketchup.
what sets us apart
⌘ + C:\> = Holygon
The ⌘ stands for sight-of-interest. It symbolises our knowledge of art, culture and history. An ancient symbol and used in Scandinavia on runestones, it is now a recognised international sign, used to identify things worth discovering.
The C:\> stands for the computer prompt. It symbolises our command of current digital tools, including Sketchup and programming languages like Ruby, Javascript and C++.
Holygon brings these two together.
what we believe
What is the point of software which is technically correct, but fails to arouse emotion?
At Holygon, we strongly believe that cutting-edge technology is only one part of good software. It must also speak to the heart.
What makes good software great is the joy in using it. It is this user-kind and playful character that makes it worth discovering and using – again and again.
Great tools, by removing awkwardness, help you realise your intentions, and become a joy to use. Perhaps this is why users call our software »Artistic Freedom Tools«.
— Embrace playfulness!

The main typeface used is Josefin Sans.
The website should work on any device and screen size, but is optimally viewed on a large horizontal screen – just like like cinema.
Main images are typically 16:9 proportion and 2160×3840 pixels. You may freely copy and distribute Holygon’s images and other media, provided you clearly attribute them to Holygon.
