Lumion introduces Lumion View—an always-on, real-time visualization plugin designed for architects and designers working in SketchUp.

SASSENHEIM, ZUID HOLLAND, NETHERLANDS, March 25, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ --
Lumion, the global leader in architectural visualization, announces the Early Access launch of Lumion View, its new lightweight design companion tailored for early-stage design workflows.

- Made for conceptual design—perfect for architects exploring early-stage ideas.
- Fast, lightweight, and intuitive—no steep learning curve, designed for creativity.
- Seamless integration—works directly inside SketchUp (with Revit & other CAD support coming soon).

Built to work alongside Lumion Pro, the company’s flagship pro-grade rendering software, Lumion View brings real-time visualization directly into SketchUp. Lumion View allows architects and designers to explore and refine their models in real time, adjust massing, lighting, and materials instantly, and generate fast 4K renders—without breaking their creative flow or leaving their modeling application.

“Lumion View brings the high-quality visuals Lumion is known for to the earliest stages of design—right inside the modeling software architects already use”, said Thomas Sønderby, CEO of Lumion. “It’s the first step in our focus on the entire visualization workflow, starting with a plug-in in the modeling environment and continuing all the way to advanced visualizations—without duplication of effort or breaking creative flow. Our goal is to give architects instant, high-quality visualization from day one, with a simple, zero-hassle tool that works the way they do.”

“Lumion View is now in Early Access, ahead of the upcoming launch of Lumion Pro 2025, which will fully support this seamless workflow”, Sønderby added. “And this is just the beginning—we’ll be bringing Lumion View to Revit and other CAD applications soon, so stay tuned.”
