Copilot suits project-based design workflows where the render needs to sit alongside drawings, schedules, and specifications in a project document. Generate the visual and the supporting documentation in one go.

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Interior Design tool:

  1. Provide the sketch and the project brief — room type, style, key materials.
  2. Run `sketch_to_render` via interior-design to generate the render.
  3. Ask Copilot to embed the render into a project document alongside a materials schedule and design notes.
  4. Output the document in a format ready for project handoff.

Example Prompt

Try this with Copilot using the Interior Design tool
Use interior-design with sketch_to_render to generate a photorealistic render of this open-plan living and dining area sketch in a contemporary coastal style. Embed the render in a design intent document with a materials schedule and a list of next actions for the contractor.

Tips

  • Include the project reference number in the document so renders stay traceable to the correct job.
  • A materials schedule alongside the render gives the contractor everything they need to start sourcing.
  • Keep the design notes factual — dimensions, finishes, fixture types — rather than descriptive.
