The advance of digital modeling software, computers with greater processing capacity and the evolution of specific rendering software, contribute to the increased use of images that simulate a real environment, being a practice increasingly inserted in the professional exercise of Architecture and in the university. This practice is already observed in undergraduate scanswhere students seek to learn on their own the use of programs and plug-ins for rendering. This work aimed to elaborate a process aimed at teaching architecture design using modeling in SketchUp and application of low-cost immersive virtual reality simulation tools for analysis of model studies in design disciplines. The method used was the use of some renderers and free virtual reality tools on the Internet. As a result we had the first contact of the students with the immersive virtual reality tools and in turn broadening the perception of the details of the objects studied and spatial vision
