Once the objects have been added to the interior, achieve absolute lighting precision with several fully customizable lighting objects available in Lumion, including spotlights, omni lights, area lights and line lights.

Features such as Sky Light enable daylight simulation, while the soft shadows and fine-detail shadows effects help create lively, beautiful shadows throughout the spaces.
