Image generators show you a kitchen like the one you want. Kitchform renders the one you planned, every cabinet and finish at its real size. You don’t install anything, and High photos render on our GPU, so you don’t need a powerful graphics card.
Free photos need no account.
One kitchen from the same camera: the plain 3D model, and the photo our studio GPU rendered from it. Drag the handle to compare.
A path tracer follows light as it travels around the room and averages many light paths for every pixel: 64 for a Free photo, 384 for a High photo. That is why the result looks like a photo rather than a 3D view.
The lighting is set up for you from the design: daylight through the windows, warm downlights over the worktops, LED strips under the wall units and pendants over an island. You choose the light: Daylight, Morning, Golden hour, Evening or Overcast. The render uses the design itself, so every cabinet, appliance and finish is where you put it, at its real size.
Light takes on the colour of what it bounces off, up to six times, so coloured fronts tint the wall and floor beside them.
Shadows are crisp where a jar stands on the worktop and soften as they fall further away.
Glossy fronts, metal and stone reflect the room that is really there. Glass refracts.
Wood, stone and tile use scanned textures for grain, veining and relief, tinted to the exact finish you picked.
An AI denoiser removes the leftover grain. It is guided by the colour and shape of every surface, so wood grain and marble veins stay sharp.
Exposure is metered from the image, the way a camera does it, then lights get a soft glow and the corners a gentle vignette.
Place a camera in the 2D plan where you would stand, then drag its round handle to aim it. The plan shows what the lens sees, stopped at the walls, and a quick preview updates as you move it.
No camera placed? Three views are framed for you from the layout, and Free photos can also use the view on screen.
Free and High photos use the same renderer. The difference is where it runs and how long it gathers light.
Your browser renders it on the graphics your computer already has. The work is split into small steps, so the editor stays usable while it renders. Keep the window open.
Your computer only sends the saved design. Our GPU renders it at twice the width and height, with six times the light samples per pixel, while you keep designing. The photo gets its own page, where you can download it for 7 days.
Desktop rendering software gives a specialist more control. Kitchform is for seeing your own kitchen design as a photo, without becoming one.
| Traditional desktop rendering | Kitchform | |
|---|---|---|
| To start | A 3D modelling program and a render plug-in, usually on paid licences | A web browser |
| Computer | A workstation with a strong graphics card or processor | The computer you have; High photos render on our GPU |
| Getting the kitchen in | Model it, or export it from the planner and fix the materials, again after every change | The render is made from the plan, so each change is in the next photo |
| What to learn | Materials, lights, exposure and camera settings | Choose a view or place a camera, then render |
| Control | Full control of lights, exposure, depth of field and post-production | Lighting and exposure are set for you; you choose the view, lens and height |
| Cost per photo | Licences and hardware, whatever you render | Free photos are free; High photos come with a Premium kitchen |
Real High photos of example kitchens, straight from our studio GPU. Each one opens its plan, front elevation and cabinet list.
No. Free photos render in your browser on the graphics your computer already has, in about a minute on a recent laptop. High photos render on our studio GPU, so your computer only sends the saved design and you can keep working.
A Free photo takes about a minute on a recent laptop, and longer on an older computer. A High photo takes about two minutes on our studio GPU. You can keep designing, or close the tab, while it renders.
Free photos are 1480 × 880 px. High photos are 2960 × 1760 px: twice the width and height, with six times the light samples per pixel. Both download as PNG files.
High photos are part of a Premium kitchen. One credit makes a kitchen Premium for good, with up to 20 High photos, drawings and cabinet lists. Credits come in packs of 3 for €9.99 or 9 for €24.99, tax included, and never expire. Each account can render up to 6 High photos a day.
Yes. Turn on the camera tool in the 2D plan and click the floor to place a camera. Drag it to move it and drag its round handle to aim it. Choose an 18, 24 or 35 mm lens and a height of 110, 150 or 175 cm. A kitchen can have up to 12 cameras, saved with the project.
You can choose the light. Before you render, pick Daylight, Morning, Golden hour, Evening or Overcast. Evening turns the lamps on with dusk outside, and Overcast gives soft light with no hard shadows. The lamps come from your design: downlights over the worktops, LED strips under the wall units and pendants over an island. Exposure is metered from each image automatically.
A recent Chrome, Edge or Safari on a computer. Rendering needs WebGL 2. The AI denoiser uses WebGPU where the browser has it; elsewhere a simpler edge-aware filter removes the grain.
No. An image generator invents a kitchen that looks like what you describe, and a different one each time. Kitchform renders the 3D model of your plan, so the cabinets, sizes and finishes are the ones you chose: the same in every photo, and the same as in your drawings and cabinet list. A High photo then gets a camera finish: an image model, told your finishes, photographs the render again for the light and surfaces of a real camera, and its colours are held to the render’s. The layout and finishes stay; small details, such as the run of a marble vein or the shape of a prop, can differ.
It is made from your design, so every cabinet, appliance and finish is where you placed it, at its real size. Digital materials and lighting are not physical samples, though, and the camera finish on High photos can change small details, so take sizes from the drawings. Check real samples, site measurements and appliance specifications with your supplier before ordering.
Plan it for free in the browser, then see it as a photo.
