Rendering Exterior Cabin: The RAC Basic Sample Revit Model

NOTE: this workflow is pre V1 - click here for new v1 post

1 | Revit View Setup

  • Go to a 3d perspective view that is uncropped
  • Set the view to Realistic mode
  • Go to the Graphic Display Options… and update the settings to match the screenshot

2 | Render the View

  • Find an interesting position for the Revit view
  • Start the Veras app under the EvolveLAB Ribbon tab
  • Right click on the gray canvas, and select Show Revit Preview. This will show you the framing of the view before it will be rendered.
  • Click the Render button at the bottom of the property pane if you’re happy with the rough composition
  • If you get a network error, please see this troubleshoot post

Tip: it helps to make the aspect ration of your view similar to the render resolutions selected. Ex: if square, the Revit window can be adjusted into a square ratio

3 | Materiality Adjustments

All the images below share these common settings. The only change is in the prompt, which is included below each image.

Creativity Strength: 95
Style Strength: 34
Width: 1344
All Optional Toggles are off


Prompt: modern minimal cabin, limestone, white walls, white ceiling, white cabinets, background forest during autumn


Prompt: modern minimal concrete cabin, background forest during autumn


Prompt: modern gray wood cabin, forest during summer

4 | Environment & Weather

Notice how the first two images have a forest in autumn, and the last one is during summer. Here are some more explorations with seasons by only adjusting the prompt.


Prompt: modern gray wood cabin, forest during winter, snow, blizzard, white oak flooring interior


Prompt: modern gray wood cabin, forest during summer

5 | Have Some Fun

The examples below are silly, but quite cool to explore. Only the prompt was adjusted.


Prompt: ice sculpture


Prompt: sponge in the ocean


Prompt: ship dock

Tip: if you have images that are pixelated or blurry, the Style Strength might be too high. Try lowering it to 30 or below. This happens with higher Creativity Strength values

Did you create a specific ML model to create Veras?
