Architectural visualization in Lumion

Computer graphics is a universal tool to work out the project from the idea to its virtual imaging performing backbone role in all phases of project. That’s why one of the most important factors in the successful implementation of the project is use of modern software in the field of architecture. Assistants to realization architectural image of building are the programs for renderer, which carry visual presentation of the project to the customer. One such tool is Lumion, consideration of which is devoted to the publication. Unconventional approach allowed developers to create program software which can compete with the leading systems of render applicable in the field of architecture. Thearticle shows the main advantages and disadvantages of the system, considers technical features, such as: creating scenes in real time, imports of various 3D file formats, extensive library objects, modification topography and visualization as an image or video.
