Lumion Tips & Tricks

Can GPT-6 Astra turn floor plans, reference images and drawings into 3D models you can actually use? I tested it across 6 different projects, from apartments and architectural exteriors to a foldable phone, an IKEA vase and a detailed chair. Some results were surprisingly good. Others would have been faster to model manually. 👉 Higgsfield: https://nunosilva.pt/higgsfield 🔷 GPT-6 Astra / ChatGPT: https://chatgpt.com/ 👉 NEW Lumion Render Course: https://nunosilva.pt/new-lumion-course 🔶 Lumion FREE Training: https://nunosilva.pt/lumion-training 🔷 My Scene Files: https://gumroad.com/nunosilva3d PROJECTS TESTED: • Apartment generated from a floor plan • Foldable iPhone Duo product model • Architectural exterior generated from plans and elevations • IKEA vase • IKEA chair • Apartment model based on one of my previous projects We’ll also look at the models inside SketchUp, Blender and Lumion to see how useful they are in a real architecture and visualization workflow. My main question: does GPT-6 Astra genuinely save time, or does correcting the results take longer than modeling them yourself?
