SVG extrusion

Many tools aimed at graphic designers, such as Figma and Sketch, support exporting design assets in SVG format. SVGs are essentially vector paths composed of a series of Bézier curves, typically forming closed shapes. By importing these paths into a 3D modeling environment, geometric operations can be applied—such as extruding along the vertical axis and assigning a certain thickness—to generate simple 3D models. This approach leverages existing 2D vector data, offering a direct and practical pathway for transforming 2D designs into 3D geometry.

  • Obtain SVG assets—here, we use Figma as an example.

  • Select Make3D's SVG Solidify

  • Paste SVG code, or drag and drop an SVG file into the input field

  • Adjust the solidification parameters and add the result to the scene
