Change Lighting Tool: Interior Lighting Simulation and Adjustment

Same space. Different time of day. Completely different feeling.

That sunny afternoon render you have? What if you want to see it at sunset? At night with warm interior lighting? At dawn with soft morning light? Lighting changes everything—the mood, the colors, how materials look.

Lighting That Actually Works

Upload your render. Pick a lighting style: natural daylight, warm cozy lighting, cool modern lighting, dramatic high-contrast, soft diffused, or studio professional. Or pick a time: day, sunset, night, dawn, golden hour.

The AI changes the lighting while keeping everything else the same—materials stay accurate, proportions stay correct, it just feels different. See how the space changes throughout the day. Test different lighting strategies. Find the mood that works.
