: Lumion 7 introduced the revolutionary ability to place buildings on a map. By pulling 3D data from OpenStreetMap, users could instantly generate entire city blocks as context for their designs.
Lumion uses a unique "material ID" system. Instead of UVW unwrapping, you click on any surface (walls, floors, roofs) and assign a Lumion material—brick, stucco, or reflective glass. The PRO version allows you to use "relief mapping" for 3D bricks that look geometric even on flat planes.
