A kitchen render with sage tall cabinets, oak overheads and a sage fluted island under a white waterfall benchtop, with four stools and a dining table

Sage tall cabinets and a fluted island, rendered from a coloured CAD view. A real Asterlyn Space render.

How it works

From the drawing you have to a picture the customer can see.

Asterlyn Space takes the drawing or photo you already have and gives you back a photoreal AI render in a couple of minutes. Here is the whole job in order, with what each step costs.

The same kitchen, start to finish.

Three pictures from one project. A line drawing went in, the materials went on, then the lights came up and the room was dressed.

Create a project and pick the room

Name the job and pick the room. The app names the runs in that room's words, so a laundry asks about its benchtop (countertop), not an island. See rooms.

  • Photo of the room nowRenovated in place: same room, light and camera.

Check what was read

What was found is marked on your drawing. Correct any appliance or sink that was read wrong, once, before you spend a credit.

In the app
  • Review detections
  • Re-read drawing
  • Grey marks the feature colour

Pick the materials

A colour for each run, then the splashback (backsplash), floor and walls. Paste a supplier swatch for anything patterned.

Choose everything before you render. On the first render your picks go on for free.

Steps 5 and 6

Render, look, then fix what is wrong.

1 credit

Render

A couple of minutes. The first render builds the room, then puts your materials on. One credit buys both.

Pass 1Builds the room from your drawingIn one of our showroom schemes.
Pass 2Puts your materials onOn that same picture, straight after.

One credit buys both on a project's first render

1 credit a pass

Fix what is wrong

Mark the part that's wrong and pick how to change it. Everything outside the mark is built to stay as it was.

  • AppearanceRecolours what is already there.
  • Object / detailLets the marked area change shape: add a wine rack, take a shelf out, swap a cooktop.
  • Text instructionTakes the change in your own words. Mark an area, or mark nothing to change the whole render.
Steps 7–9

Light it, take it up to 2K, send it.

1 credit a pass

Lights, dressing and a photoshoot

All optional. Lights and dressing go on with your colours. A photoshoot pass stages the room like a listing photo.

In the app
  • Lighting
  • Photoshoot
  • Photograph
  • LightingLED strips under the overheads, under floating shelves, in the kickboards and inside glass cabinets. Scene lighting: daylight, warm, evening or studio.
  • DressingThings on the benchtop, filled glass cabinets and open shelves, stools at the island, a tap (faucet) on the sink.
  • PhotoshootStages the room the way a house is photographed for a listing: furniture, a rug, things on the walls.

Limits

What it won't do.

  • It is a picture, not a manufacturing drawing.Measurements, specifications and cutting lists stay your job. Nothing in the render replaces them.
  • Start with the layout you want.The render is built to follow your drawing. For a different layout, change the drawing and upload it again.
  • Colours on screen are not samples.Use the render to sell the look, and confirm the final colour against a real sample from the supplier.
  • It is AI.A render can get something wrong. That is why every pass is kept and a failed render gives its credit back.
