Before you start
Prepare your exterior model view
An exterior render sells the building in its setting: the sky, the season, the street life. Bring an exterior view from any 3D tool, describe the materials and the moment you want to show, and adjust the scene in RenderChat until it tells the right story.
Model only what matters
The building and key site elements are enough. Trees, cars and people can come from the brief.
Decide the moment
Pick the time of day, season and weather before you write the brief; it changes everything else.

Example briefs
Exterior briefs to start from
Copy a brief, paste it into RenderChat with your exterior model view, and change the materials and mood to match your project.
Photoreal exterior render of this model. Keep the architecture and camera. Pale limestone, bronze window frames, lush summer planting, clear sky, late-afternoon sun with long shadows, a family walking toward the entrance.
Same building and camera in a winter morning: light snow on the ground and roof, bare trees, low sun, warm light from inside, breath visible on a passer-by.
