Software built alongside the design work, for the parts of it a drawing program leaves to you. Sign in to use them.
Turn a design model into photoreal images
Upload a Chief Architect export and get photoreal stills of the rooms back — lit by the fixtures already in the plan, with the finishes that were specified. Renders run on a dedicated graphics machine, so your own computer stays free.
You'll need: A Chief Architect 3D export (.dae), one file per storey.
Open Render StudioA working companion for Chief Architect
Plan inspection, the material and family library, and the Ruby bridge into Chief itself — the parts of a plan that are easier to read outside the program than in it. $10 a month when it opens; renders are 50c a job on top.
You'll need: Chief Architect installed locally.
