Home Design Copilot required
Home Design Copilot is your design‑aware creative partner. It turns prompts, sketches, plans, renderings and reference images into precise visual outcomes that feel close to the homes you imagine. Start from a 2D plan, a 3D view or a plain‑language prompt, then guide the result with style cues, lighting notes or material direction. Copilot enhances renderings, generates textures and plants, explores new environments, shifts presentation mood, and answers product or design questions — all without leaving your workflow. It’s a focused, calm workspace that helps you move from idea to image with fewer pauses and a clearer sense of direction.
Reference Image Matching brings a new level of control to visual refinement. Provide drawings, renderings or photos, and Copilot captures your style, colours, materials and atmosphere with remarkable accuracy. Reference images can define mood, vegetation, stonework, lighting or the overall visual language of a scene. The structure of your design stays intact while the finish becomes exactly what you specify, making early concepts feel grounded rather than abstract.
Architect 3D 26 introduces AI‑generated textures and lifelike plants that feel at home in real projects. Create custom materials from text prompts or reference images, expand your landscape palette, and build a richer design library on demand. Textures carry depth and character; plants feel natural, varied and fully customisable. It’s a fast way to produce the supporting elements that bring scenes to life and keep projects visually consistent.
Home Design Copilot also works as a knowledge layer. Ask product questions, explore layout ideas, test colour palettes or request inspiration — all inside the same workspace. Guidance is clear, practical and tuned to the project you’re shaping, helping creativity stay uninterrupted and design decisions feel more confident.
The redesigned interface adapts to your environment with theme‑aware visuals that stay consistent from launch to layout. Light and dark modes shift automatically with your system settings, giving you a workspace that feels balanced, comfortable and visually calm throughout long design sessions. Refreshed navigation, cleaner palette bars and modernised welcome screens complete a quieter, sharper interface.
SketchUp import is now more accurate, more organised and more predictable. Textures carry through to LuxCore™, scale control is clearer, and progress feedback keeps large imports easy to monitor. Models can be named, scaled, split into editable groups and saved directly into dedicated User Library folders — making imported content easier to manage across projects. Material detail is preserved, from patterned ceramics to subtle upholstery variation, helping interior scenes feel richer and more tactile.
Window frames now support centred and flush mounting options for cleaner detailing. Subplans from other plans can be displayed and edited directly inside your project, making coordination across larger designs more intuitive. These refinements add meaningful flexibility to everyday work and help complex layouts feel more manageable.
