Overview / Description
Elevations by Ongrid Design transforms your architectural briefs into photorealistic home elevations in under 90 seconds. Unlike general AI image generators, this tool is trained on Indian architectural nuances, recognizing and applying materials such as Mangalore tiles, laterite, and jali work, alongside regional design styles. It serves as a valuable preliminary design tool for first-time builders, Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), and architects looking to explore design directions and visualize concepts before committing to a studio. Users can generate 3 free sketches per day.
