AI visual concepts for Vectorworks Landmark site models and landscape views.
Vectorworks Landmark is landscape BIM software for modeling existing and proposed terrain, planting, hardscapes, grading, and documented site designs.
Vectorworks Landmark is landscape BIM software for modeling existing and proposed terrain, planting, hardscapes, grading, and documented site designs.
Vectorworks Landmark supports landscape architects and site designers from an existing-conditions model through proposed terrain, planting, hardscapes, and construction documentation. Its site models can be created from elevation data, while landscape areas, plants, paths, paved spaces, curbs, and other site elements help describe a garden, campus, streetscape, park, or public-realm proposal. RENDERCAD is useful when a Landmark design view is technically clear but needs stronger visual atmosphere for a concept board or stakeholder review. Start with a perspective or viewport where the terrain change, circulation, planted masses, and important structures are legible. Use RENDERCAD to explore an appropriate material mood, seasonal planting character, daylight, weather, water, or surrounding context without losing the overall design intent. It is best for communicating a visual direction, not for validating grading or planting data.
In Landmark, establish the existing and proposed site model, then develop the hardscapes, landscape areas, planting, curbs, and structures that explain the scheme. Because hardscapes can conform to or modify a site model, update the model and review the proposal before preparing an image. Frame a perspective, axonometric view, or sheet-layer viewport at a useful review scale. Hide dimensions, grade labels, plant tags, and other construction annotation, but retain the terrain, paving edges, major planting volumes, and built elements that anchor the scene. Capture the clean view and use RENDERCAD to test presentation directions such as a planted arrival sequence, a warmer civic plaza, or a rain-garden setting. Compare the image with the Landmark model before sharing it. Return to Landmark for elevations, slopes, quantities, planting information, and construction documents; the AI image should not replace those project records.

RENDERCAD uses a maintained selection of image-generation models for different rendering tasks. Results can vary by model and input, so compare generated output with the source design before relying on geometry, materials, or dimensions.

Read the numbers. We trust you to know theirs.
Skip a separate local scene build. Pick a condition, material, and background while RENDERCAD handles the image-generation step. Image renders complete in 60 seconds.
Common solutions for Vectorworks Landmark users
The current desktop app or browser extension can capture a selected view and send the screenshot into RENDERCAD without a CAD rendering plugin.
Yes, if you are authorized to use its contents. A mood board can guide palette, lighting, and atmosphere; generated interpretation varies.
Yes. Draw a mask around the product and direct the background region separately. Inspect the full result because unmasked content can still drift during generation.
Yes, when you are authorized to use them. A generated concept can guide the visual direction of a later render, but product fidelity and style consistency still require review.
Upload a clear image, then choose a worn condition or describe rust and age in the prompt. Review the result because the generated wear pattern may not match real use or material behavior.
Upload a clear image, choose the Realistic engine, and describe a large soft light source or overcast lighting. Generated shadows are visual approximations, not a physical lighting calculation.
Choose the Orbit camera preset and keep the source image as the authority for product shape and visible details. Generated parallax and newly revealed areas can vary.
No local NVIDIA rendering GPU is required. Use a supported browser to upload an image or a current capture tool to select a screenshot; generation runs on cloud infrastructure.
The Render History page lets you browse and download retained images and videos. Storage duration depends on the account plan, so download assets you need before they expire.
Start with a clear, well-framed viewport and describe the intended material and lighting. Image renders complete in 60 seconds, and you can iterate or mask a region when an artifact remains.
The core workflow starts from a selected 2D view, so it does not require native CAD-file conversion or source-model upload.
Reuse a clear history image and change the color instruction or reference. Treat the results as visual options rather than color-managed proof.
