Archviz
Real-world scale architecture. Clean cameras. Believable materials. Delivery stills.
When to Use
- Interior/exterior architectural presentations
- Real-estate style stills and simple walkthroughs
- Material/lighting lookdev for spaces
Workflow
CAD/scale check → Greybox → Final modeling → Materials
→ Cameras → Lighting (HDRI + practicals) → Render → Comp
Scale & Modeling
- Millimeter–meter accuracy where specs exist
- Straight verticals; controlled bevels on visible edges
- Separate glass, frames, furniture collections
Cameras
- Verticals corrected (shift) for exteriors when needed
- 24–35mm interiors common; avoid extreme wide unless intentional
- Use
camera-cinematography
Lighting
- HDRI for exteriors / window light
- Practical lamps as mesh lights
- Soft GI; avoid game-style single harsh key unless styled
Delivery
- High-res stills; optional depth/mist for comp
compositingfor exposure polish- Keep layered EXR for revisions
Constraints
MUST DO
- Verify real-world scale early
- Lock cameras before heavy grade
- Keep glass/IOR plausible
MUST NOT DO
- Game lowpoly shortcuts on hero archviz plates
- Over-saturate materials

Tips for Archviz
- • Start a fresh session after installing so your agent picks up the new skill.
- • It bundles reference files. The agent reads them only when needed, so they cost no context until then.
- • It is part of a pack with 30 skills. Install only the ones you need with --skill to keep triggers precise.
- • If two skills overlap, mention the one you want by name.
