Product updates, SketchUp workflows, rendering practice, and the decisions behind rkitect.

Why the SketchUp viewport should remain the camera
→A rendering workflow becomes faster when designers do not have to rebuild composition in another tool.
Architects already make careful camera decisions inside SketchUp. Our plugin treats that view as the approved starting point, preserving composition while allowing the visual language to change. That means fewer exports, fewer duplicate files, and a clearer link between model review and presentation output.
The principle is simple: geometry stays in SketchUp; visual exploration happens around it.

Targeted edits are more useful than another full render
→Most client feedback is local: a floor, a wall finish, a sofa, or the light.
Traditional image generation often restarts the whole scene for one change. rkitect instead lets the designer select the affected region and describe the replacement. The goal is not infinite variation; it is controlled revision with fewer unintended changes.
