About this model
Turns a raw 3D viewport screenshot — Archicad, SketchUp, Revit, Rhino, Blender — into a magazine-grade architectural photograph at medium-format register. Camera position, geometry, openings, materials and composition are hard-locked from the source viewport; only the photographic quality is reconstructed: sharp tilt-shift verticals, neutral editorial grading, tactile micro-textures on every surface, ambient occlusion in joints, atmospheric perspective on receding planes. The output reads as a Werk Bauen + Wohnen or Hochparterre cover photograph of the building you modelled — the same building, the same view, but rendered through the discipline of architectural photography rather than the default CG aesthetic. Pairs with Material Swap, Landscape Design and Populate the Scene to layer further refinement after the photoreal pass. This is arkia's flagship template; the public landing demo runs the same prompt.
When to use it
An architecture studio is submitting a planning application for a 4-storey infill project. The Revit model is complete, the planners need photoreal views from the street and the courtyard. Hiring a visualisation studio costs four figures and takes a week. The studio takes the existing viewport screenshots, runs them through Photoreal, gets two magazine-grade photographs of the project in twenty seconds, attaches them to the application the same afternoon.
No — geometry, openings and the materials assigned in the viewport are preserved. The model upgrades the photographic register, it does not re-design. To test alternative materials, use Material Swap after Photoreal.
Photoreal is tuned for exterior architectural views. For interiors, see Sketch to Render (sketches) or Virtual Home Staging (empty plates). For interior photoreal of a 3D viewport, the result is acceptable but the dedicated interior templates produce sharper output.
