How about using generative AI to do the same without much special training or experience?<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember1700\">I stumbled upon\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.evolvelab.io\/veras\" target=\"_blank\">Veras<\/a>\u00ae, an AI tool from\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.evolvelab.io\/solutions\" target=\"_blank\">Evolve Lab<\/a>. Veras is\u00a0an AI-powered visualization add-in for SketchUp\u00ae, Revit\u00ae &amp; Rhinoceros\u00ae that uses your 3D\u00a0model geometry as a substrate for creativity and inspiration.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember1701\">I gave Veras a try. My 30-minute workflow was as follows.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Downloaded and installed a trial version of SketchUp<\/li>\n<li>Downloaded a free SketchUp model from\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/3dwarehouse.sketchup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">3D Warehouse<\/a>. The model is called Diamond Cabin and is John Luttropp\u2019s re-creation of a 1960s design he had found online.<\/li>\n<li>Downloaded and installed a free trial of the Veras extension for SketchUp<\/li>\n<li>Created around ten renderings of the Diamond Cabin in SketchUp with Veras<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"ember1703\">I found Veras really easy to use. Its interface is straightforward, with a few sliders, switches, and a prompt box. You can retain the model\u2019s original geometry or give Veras freedom to make alterations.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember1704\">What you put in the prompt box is essential. It seems to understand the references to the model\u2019s objects.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember1705\">I made both exterior and interior renderings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember1706\">Here\u2019s the original SketchUp model.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/11\/1688922897674.jpeg\" alt=\"3D model\" class=\"wp-image-4015674 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/11\/1688922897674.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/aec-business.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1688922897674-1200x625.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/aec-business.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1688922897674-768x400.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Diamond Cabin model in SketchUp.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Here are a few examples of my Veras visualizations.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/11\/1688923299116.jpeg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-4015675 lazyload\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/11\/1688923299116.jpeg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-4015675 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/11\/1688923299116.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/aec-business.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1688923299116-1200x600.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/aec-business.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1688923299116-768x384.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\"><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Veras renderings with the original and slightly altered geometry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/11\/1688923415580.jpeg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-4015676 lazyload\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/11\/1688923415580.jpeg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-4015676 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/11\/1688923415580.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/aec-business.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1688923415580-1200x600.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/aec-business.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1688923415580-768x384.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\"><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Interior renderings with Veras<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"ember63\">Veras is worth checking out.
