For Architects

From idea to presentation in minutes, not hours.

Develop architectural concepts faster. Start with text or a concept image, generate an editable floor plan and 3D view, then create and refine renders for your client presentation.

    Develop the plan in 3D

    Generate an editable floor plan, refine the layout, and explore the 3D view.

  3. 03

    Render and refine

    Create renders, edit selected areas, and explore lighting and preset styles.

  4. 04

    Present and share

    Create presentation boards and visual formats for clients and social media.

  5. 05

    Continue in CAD

    Export DWG or DXF to develop the concept in your usual design software.

01 / Start the concept

A few words. A reference image. An editable starting point.

Schematic design is where you explore the first layout and design direction. FloorPlan AI helps you get that concept on screen quickly, so you can start making design decisions.

Start from text

Describe the rooms, approximate size, and how spaces should connect, or enter the brief in the guided requirements form.

Start from an image

Upload a photo or image of your concept, a reference floor plan, or a sketch to guide the initial layout.

Example text brief

“A single-story home with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, open-plan living, and a patio connected to the kitchen and dining area.”

Develop the plan. Explore it in 3D.

  • Edit walls, doors, windows, dimensions, and furniture.
  • Review room relationships and circulation.
  • Explore the 3D view and choose perspectives for rendering.

02 / Create architectural renders

Turn the concept into a place your client can picture.

Create interior and exterior renders from your project’s 3D views, sketches, or reference images. Explore the materials, lighting, and atmosphere before developing the next design direction.

Use the same visual workflow for a facade study, an interior concept, a sketch-to-render exploration, or a new view of the project.

Keep exploring while the idea is still flexible.

  • Turn a sketch or a 3D view into an architectural visualization.
  • Describe the materials, finishes, and mood you want to explore.
  • Create alternatives to support the client discussion.

03 / Refine the render

Change the details that matter.

Select specific areas of a render and describe what you want to change. Explore a different facade finish, adjust a material, or refine an interior detail without starting the visual discussion from scratch.

Edit selected areas

Mark the parts of the image you want to refine and give each area a clear edit instruction.

Change the lighting

Explore midday, sunset, and night lighting to communicate a different atmosphere.

Choose a preset style

Use predefined architectural styles as a starting point, then guide the materials and finishes with your own description.

Clean lines and a restrained material palette.

Familiar forms with warm, contemporary finishes.

Mid-Century Modern architectural style inspiration

Light finishes, timber, and a simple architectural expression.

04 / Rendered floor plans

Make the layout as clear as the render.

Once the editable layout is ready, generate a rendered floor plan with furniture, textures, and material cues. Give clients a top-down view that connects the room images to the overall design.

  • Show how the rooms connect and where furniture fits.
  • Communicate floor finishes and the use of each space.
  • Use the rendered plan alongside the 3D views and architectural renders.

05 / Presentation boards

Bring the whole project into one visual story.

Combine your floor plan, renders, and concept text in a presentation board. Edit the title, typography, colors, and image composition to explain the project in your own voice.

Ready for the client conversation.

  • Present the architectural concept and rendered floor plan together.
  • Add your project title, design intent, and key information.
  • Refine the board in the editor and download an A3 PDF.

Client presentations & social media

One project. More ways to show it.

Create a landscape board for a design review and portrait presentation visuals for your studio’s social content. Bring the plan and renders together in a format that fits the story.

  • Landscape layouts for project presentations and client meetings.
  • Portrait visuals for Instagram posts, carousels, and stories.
  • Images to use in TikTok photo posts, video covers, or project showcases.

Use the exported visuals in your usual social publishing tools.

06 / Continue in your design tools

Keep the concept moving with DWG and DXF.

Export the edited floor plan as a CAD drawing and continue modeling, detailing, and documenting the project in the software your practice already uses.

Explore CAD export

AutoCAD

Open the exported DWG or DXF and continue drawing and detailing.

SketchUp

Import the CAD drawing in a supported edition as a starting point for further modeling.

A few helpful answers

Before you start

How does FloorPlan AI help with schematic design?

It helps you quickly develop and communicate early architectural concepts. Start with text or an image, generate a floor plan, refine the editable layout, explore it in 3D, and create renders and presentation boards for the client conversation.

Can I generate an editable floor plan and 3D from text or an image?

Yes. Describe the project, use the guided requirements form, or upload a floor plan, sketch, or concept image. Generate the starting layout, edit walls, openings, dimensions, and furniture, and explore the plan in 3D.

Can I edit specific parts of a render?

Yes. Open a render in the image editor, select the areas you want to change, and describe the requested edits. You can also guide the overall image with text, choose lighting such as midday, sunset, or night, and explore predefined architectural styles.

Can I create rendered floor plans and presentation boards?

Yes. Generate a furnished, rendered floor plan and create a project presentation using your plan and renders. In the board editor, customize the text, typography, colors, and image composition. Use landscape presentations for client reviews and portrait visuals when preparing social media content.

Can I prepare visuals for Instagram and TikTok?

Yes. Create portrait presentation visuals that bring the plan and renders together, then use those images when preparing Instagram posts or slides and TikTok photo posts or video covers in your usual publishing tools.

How do DWG and DXF fit into my existing workflow?

Export the edited floor plan as DWG or DXF. Open the drawing in AutoCAD, import it into a supported SketchUp edition, or use it as a CAD reference in Revit or Archicad. Continue modeling, detailing, and documentation in those applications.

Your next project starts here
