New Features in Lumion 2026

Smarter tools. Smoother workflows. Stunning results.

When deadlines approach, you can't afford to lose time populating scenes with context, polishing elevations, or waiting for billboard-ready outputs to render.

Lumion Pro 2026.0 is all about getting your projects from almost done to done faster, with fewer detours and less cleanup.

With this update, you'll find it much easier to finish projects in time, while maintaining the quality your clients expect. See what's inside!

Cover more ground, in less time

Need instant site context without hand-placing thousands of items?
The new area placement tool lets you populate any large or irregular outdoor space with up to 5,000 nature items across 20 asset types.
Select your area, choose what to scatter, then place in one click.

Populate surfaces.
Target the exact ground you want by selecting a surface or group of surfaces based on the assigned material. Great for lawns, planting beds, slopes, and plazas. You’ll see a clear preview with improved spacing and orientation, so you know what you’re about to place.
Draw any shape. Fill it instantly.
Sketch an irregular area directly in your scene and generate a live preview at the density you need. When you’re happy, place everything at once. The tool keeps placement clean and contained, so your vegetation stays inside the shape and your edges stay crisp
Control spacing and overlap.
Control weight and collision per item type so scenes look natural and intentional. Use it to balance trees and underbrush, reduce overlap, and keep assets neatly distributed, even at higher densities. It’s quick to adjust, intuitive to dial in, and built to help you land a polished result faster

​Design

Explore options fast, share early ideas, and invite quick reactions that shape your design.

​Visualize

Create images, videos, and immersive 360 panoramas that tell the story of your design.

​Collaborate

Centralize visuals, discussions, and decisions so the team stays aligned and approvals land sooner.

New nature assets, ready for close-ups

Add richness and variation to your scenes with brand-new nature content. This release introduces 73 ultra-detailed photogrammetric trees and small plants, including Common Oak, Mountain Ash, and Silver Birch, plus ground-layer detail like grasses, dandelions, yarrow, and St John’s Wort for more natural texture in the foreground.

You’ll also get 31 new trees in different stages of growth, including English Oak, Italian Cypress, Ginkgo Biloba, Douglas Fir, and Eastern White Pine. Match the scale, maturity, and character of each site, without compromise.

Refreshed favorites

Discover 165 refreshed 3D models so your everyday project context looks sharper and more consistent, straight out of the library.

96 updated nature items

A set of 96 nature assets including favorites like European Beech, London Plane, Scots Pine, Red Maple, and Weeping Willow, plus updated staples such as White Birch and Silver Birch for more consistent detail across the scene.

69 revamped outdoor models

69 updated urban items that sharpen streetscape context fast, including street lights, bus stops, bollards, awnings, and fire hydrants.

Clean section cuts, straight from Lumion Pro.

Clipping planes are perfect for explaining a design, but hollow cuts slow you down and make sections harder to read.
Now you can fill clipped areas in the clipping planes tool. Finish section views in Lumion Pro as diagram-style visuals and architectural drawings, without patching elsewhere.

Color or material. Your choice.
Use a flat color for crisp, graphic sections, or apply a material to show the cut with more realism. Either way, you get cleaner sections that are ready to present sooner.

More ways to present the same design

Use fills to emphasize structure, separate layers, and create cleaner architectural graphics without switching tools. Explore filled section cuts styled for plans, sections, elevations, and concept diagrams.

Learn by example

Explore the latest example scenes for a shortcut to great results. Each one is a polished setup you can open, tweak, and reuse, showing Lumion Pro’s tools and effects in context. Adjust a few settings and see the look change in real time, then carry those choices into your own design.

Get a head start

Templates are ready-made, editable starting points that get you to a polished look faster. Open one, drop in your model, and start refining. Less setup. More time to create.
You’ll find templates for common project types workflows:

• Times of day: Place your model once and preview it across nine exterior and five interior time-of-day setups.
• Suburban neighborhood: Use the placeholder houses as-is or replace them with your own to build context fast.
• Shopping area: A high-street interior setup with replaceable buildings for quick retail visualization.
• Macro nature shots: Swap in your own plants for close-up compositions with foreground detail.
• Showcase templates: Clean black or white backdrops for crisp presentations, with dedicated setups for furniture, and small objects.

Skip the setup with material imports

Your starting line just moved forward. 
Import PBR material maps into Lumion Pro from SketchUp, Revit, and Archicad with the free LiveSync plugin.

Up to 16K resolution

Billboard visuals. Minimal effort.
Produce crisp, print-ready images for boards, posters, banners, and billboards with the improved AI image upscaler. Upscale with higher accuracy at 2x using both normal and depth maps, or choose the new 4x option for up to 16K output when you need maximum detail.

Present more. Manage less.

When projects get bigger, your outputs shouldn’t get messier.

​More panoramas, more perspectives
