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.

The Architectural Version of Valentine’s Day 💘

St. Valentine’s day has all struck us directly in the heart! Love is in the air which is why our creative team decided to experiment with a brand-new type of floor plan, with love as its primary inspiration. As professionals, we design dozens of conventional and often unconventional floor plans for our clients. None of them are boring because each design is unique, but some of them need to be genuinely out of the box! However, rarely are we asked to come up with something that has emotion like love as its theme. So, we challenged ourselves to come up with floor plans that were more than brilliant, i.e.; they were ‘lovely’! If anything it was to inspire the hundreds if not thousands of people to think more emotionally. 205105 205106 205107 Project page link
