About
Architectural rendering, in seconds
Maquete is an AI rendering platform built specifically for architects. We engineer the model and the prompts so your walls stay your walls — and so a client-ready render takes thirty seconds, not three hours.

What we do
Maquete converts SketchUp viewports, Archicad exports, Revit prints, and other 3D model captures into photorealistic interior and exterior renders. We work through a browser-based studio and a native SketchUp plugin that renders directly from the viewport — no export, no scene setup, no GPU workstation required.
Geometry fidelity
Generative image tools can change architectural geometry — walls may drift, openings can move and unmodelled objects can appear. Maquete's prompts, source comparison and validation pipeline are tuned to reduce visible drift. Because the output is generative, walls, openings, fixed elements, camera and proportions should still be checked against the source model.
Where we work
Maquete is operated from England and Wales, serving architects and design studios worldwide. The platform is available in English, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, Italian, and French, with payment in USD via Stripe. Our SketchUp plugin runs on macOS and Windows.
Who's behind it
Maquete was founded in 2026 by Laura Consoni, a licensed architect and urban designer, and Joshua Kenyon, a product engineer. Laura leads the architectural review of the product; Joshua builds the rendering, evaluation, and customer-facing systems.
The founders
Architecture and product engineering sit side by side. Real project review informs what gets built, tested, and improved.
