SketchUp's Real-Time Rendering Moment: Lumion View, AI Render, and the End of the Export Workflow

SketchUp 2025–2026 has added native PBR materials, AI image generation, and real-time rendering plugins like Lumion View, letting archviz artists produce photorealistic images without leaving the viewport. This collapses the traditional design-to-render pipeline.

Lake Rotsee Refuge

Hello, I just completed one image of hopefully a few more to come for a personal project that has been sitting on my hard drive for a while. This is a refuge designed by Fuhrimann Gabrielle Hachler Architekten (AFGH) on a lake as a venue for rowing. I wanted to capture moment of peace and solitude with nature as a major backdrop to the architecture. Done with 3DS Max, Vray, Forest Pack, Photoshop. Hope you all enjoy.
