The thing that differentiates a great architectural visualizer from an average 3D renderer is an artistic touch and creative thinking. A great visualizer can make a boring design look striking and deliver a powerful first impression with one money shot. However, becoming a great visualizer can take years of practice, creativity, and tons of skills in lighting, materials, textures, modeling, and so on. However, the rise of AI and AI rendering has resulted in a plethora of AI tools capable of producing impressive-looking architectural visualizations with little effort. One of these tools is called Veras®, an AI-powered visualization add-in for Revit® developed by Evolve Lab LLC.
The benefits of using Veras® or other AI rendering tools for architectural visualizations
Create highly realistic renders with minimal effort.
A cost-effective alternative to expensive 3D visualization software
Seamless integration with Revit® for easy implementation into existing workflows
So, what can this specific tool do?
It can be integrated into Revit, and it can literally read your 3D viewport preview and create photorealistic renders out of it. You will be able to generate renders while you are doing your BIM model with only a text-based description of the materials, context, and atmosphere you desire. You just eliminate hours of work, and you can submit your work and start working on another project while your competitor is still tweaking the lighting and setting up their materials.
This is a game changer because it is on par with hiring a superhuman expert visualizer that can create photorealistic renders in seconds for a fraction of the cost. Because traditionally, you'd have to spend hours and a lot of money on specific 3D rendering software. Moreover, most of the popular software tools are expensive.
What does this mean for the rendering studios and architectural visualizers?
These tools are definitely a game changer. While it seems that such tools might end up making the renderers obsolete, we think that the market will just evolve, and these tools will be used by all the different players in the market to create increasingly impressive visualizations that stand out from the crowd of AI generated images. And when it comes to Veras, the seamless integration with Revit® makes it an efficient and cost-effective solution for creating photorealistic architectural renders. Just remember to explore, try different tools, and keep creating!
