Model Showroom

What Model Showroom does

Open a 3D model and stage it like a product shot: one-tap Looks set sky, sun and colour together, a draggable sun dial aims the light, and any surface can be recoloured or swapped. Walk through it, draw a plan, snapshot a view, or publish a private link a client can open on any device. The model stays in your browser until you publish.

Input:

.3dm · .ifc · .glb · .obj · .fbx

Output:

Lit interactive scene + plan

Runs:

In your browser

How it works

The model is loaded and lit entirely in your browser, so the free viewer costs nothing and the file never leaves the machine. Publishing a link is the one step that stores the model and its scene, so a client can open it without an account.

• The model is read in the browser and never uploaded while you are staging it.
• A Look sets sky, sun, colour and floor as one coherent state you can then adjust.
• A ground click resolves to a plan cut at the height you choose.
• Publishing stores the model and its scene so a link can open it on any device.

How to use it

1. Open a model. Drop a .glb, glTF, .3dm, .obj, .fbx or .ifc on the start panel, or use Replace to swap it later.
2. Choose a Look. The Looks panel sets sky, sun, colour and floor together in one tap; fine-tune anything in Settings.
3. Move the sun. Open Sun & time for the draggable dial and time-of-day presets, or switch to a studio environment in Settings.
4. Restyle a surface. Click any surface to open the material menu, pick a preset or colour, or use the Library to swap furniture.
5. Frame and keep views. Use the camera presets, Fit model and Turntable, then Save this angle to reuse a view.
6. Walk, snap, plan or share. Switch to Walk to move through the model, Snap for a PNG, Plan for an SVG/PNG/DXF drawing, or Share for a private link.

Best used for

• Presenting a model to a client without a render machine.
• Trying lighting and material directions in minutes.
• Sending an interactive link instead of a static image.
• Getting a scaled plan drawing out of a model.

Not a substitute for

• Photoreal final renders or a substitute for a renderer.
• Production BIM work — this is a presentation surface.
• Accurate material specifications.

Known limits

• A published link carries the model and scene you set, not your local model library.
• Quality adapts to the machine's graphics; pin it in Settings.
• The plan is a schematic cut, not a construction drawing.
