Change the season
in an architectural render.

A residential brochure doesn't want the same hero view in just one season. A site presented in summer green needs to read just as confidently under winter snow. Competition boards almost always demand multiple conditions to demonstrate the design's robustness. Without AI, the shop produces one 3D model with seasonal texture variants — slow, tedious, and the foliage rarely looks right.

AI season transformation fixes the foliage problem at the same time as the seasonal one. The model knows what an oak tree looks like in mid-October because it's trained on thousands of October-foliage photographs. Producing the autumn variant becomes a 2-credit run, not a re-render plus a Photoshop foliage paint-over.

1. Drop your finished summer render into the atlas as a source node.
2. Drag S.02 Winter snow (or S.01 Spring, S.03 Autumn) onto the canvas and connect the source.
3. In the inspector, dial intensity (light dusting → heavy snowfall), ground coverage (bare ground → fully covered), and for autumn foliage stage(early-turn amber → late-fall bare). Defaults read as "mid-season".
4. Click Generate. Cost: 2 credits. Wall-clock: 8-14 seconds.

Each season output is a node in the atlas. Re-running with a different intensity creates a sibling node — keep both, compare side-by-side, pick the one that ships.

The strongest seasonal frames pair the season preset with a relight that matches:

• S.02 Winter + L.01 Day → Dusk — early blue-hour winter, snow under deep blue sky, glowing interiors.
• S.03 Autumn + L.02 Golden hour — warm low-angle sun against amber foliage. The signature October hero.
• S.01 Spring + L.03 Overcast — diffuse light, cherry blossom, soft and quiet. Perfect for a cultural-building frame.

Run season first, relight second — the relight inherits the seasonal foliage and snow, which it adapts to the target lighting state.

Season presets transform the visible state of foliage, ground cover, sky, and atmosphere. They don't change programme — pedestrians don't put on coats for winter, café tables don't come inside, awnings don't fold up. If you need a fully-staged winter scene with people in coats and a covered terrace, run E.01 Add people after the season pass and let the inhabitant inference adapt to the cold context.

Architectural materials don't change either. Wood doesn't weather, paint doesn't fade, copper doesn't patina seasonally. For long-term weathering, use M.03 Weathered steel or similar material presets rather than seasonal restage.
