3 | Retaining the Design and Materials from Revit
We’re working on improving this process to bring it to a higher quality as the images above. However, with the current setup, here are the settings that work ok. I would recommend bringing this image into a photo editing software to further improve the quality.
NOTE: I ran this query multiple times, and cherry picked the result. Also, the resolution width is at 1344 which contributes to retaining the original design. As we enable higher resolutions we should be able to retain more geometry accurately
All the renderings below have the same settings including the prompt.
Creativity Strength: 45
Style Strength: 80
Width: 1344
Is Interior: OFF
Turbo Nature: ON
Atmospheric: ON
Aerial: ONPrompt: subtle blue hue glass panels and wood panels, curtain wall facade and concrete, parking lot left of building, golden hour, rectilinear, sharp edges and sharp corners
this was the best result I was able to get with the current settings

image before post processing
this one has a missing panel, the fin geometry are not offset from the building skin, and parking lot is missing
