🚀 SketchUp to Render
Turn SketchUp Screenshots into Photorealistic AI Renders
Upload a SketchUp viewport screenshot and transform it into a realistic architectural render with AI. Perfect for architects, interior designers, students, and studios who need fast visual concepts without setting up complex render engines.
Rendering SketchUp Models Should Not Slow Down Your Design Process
Traditional rendering from SketchUp can require setting up PBR materials, complex HDRI lighting, expensive plugins, heavy render engines, and excruciatingly long render times. Kanvas Projekt helps users bypass this technical bottleneck and create fast concept renders directly from basic screenshots.
From SketchUp Viewport to Realistic Render
4 simple steps to upgrade your 3D model.
Open Your SketchUp Model
Launch your model and apply basic colors if you prefer.
Choose a Clean Camera Angle
Set up a nice perspective view of your building or interior space.
Export or Screenshot the Viewport
Just hit print screen or export a 2D graphic. No need to export heavy 3D files.
Upload & Add Prompt
Upload to Kanvas Projekt, write a text prompt describing the materials and vibe, and generate your render.
Tips for Better SketchUp AI Renders
Use a Clear Angle
Ensure the perspective is easily understandable by the AI.
Keep Main Object Visible
Don't hide your building behind huge trees in the foreground.
Avoid Dark Screenshots
Make sure the SketchUp shadows are not overly black and obscuring geometry.
Use Perspective View
Orthographic views work, but perspective views generally look much more realistic.
Add Simple Materials
Color-coding elements (e.g., blue for glass, brown for wood) helps the AI massively.
Descriptive Prompts
Always describe the time of day, weather, and specific material finishes.
