Change a material in an architectural render

A client asks for oak instead of tile, or board-formed concrete instead of plaster. That should be one edit, not another night on the GPU.

LayerHouse is an AI render editor for architectural work. You point at the region, give the material, and the rest of the image stays as you approved it. Geometry, composition, and lighting outside that region are left alone.

Change the floor without re-rendering

Select the floor. Provide the material, oak, polished concrete, travertine, or a texture from your library. LayerHouse applies it to that surface. Furniture, walls, and the view stay put.

You do not describe the material in prompt language. You provide it. Oak looks like the oak sample, not a guess.

Swap a facade material

Select the facade. Ask for board-formed concrete, corten, or stone, or attach the actual texture. The building stays the building. Openings, proportions, and the rest of the elevation do not get redrawn.

What stays the same

• The edit is localized. Only the region you select changes.
• Geometry and composition are preserved.
• A texture reference replaces prompt guessing, so the material matches the sample across later revisions.
• One change does not turn into ten or twenty attempts.

When this is the wrong tool

LayerHouse edits a finished still. It does not replace your renderer for a new camera, a new massing, or a full lighting study. Use it when the design is approved and the request is a finish.

Edit the material. Don't re-render.

Upload the render, select the floor or the facade, and attach the texture. The revision is a few targeted edits, not another cycle.
