Create, edit, enhance and animate in Fenestra Studio

April 13, 2026A complete guide to creating, editing and animating architectural visuals with Fenestra Studio

We’ve just shipped a pretty major update to Fenestra. If you’ve opened it recently and thought, “this looks powerful, but I’m not fully sure where to start” you’re not alone. A lot has changed. The layout is different, there are more tools, and you have much more control over what you can create. So alongside the update, we’ve completely reworked our documentation. The goal was to make it something you can actually follow and get results from, not just something you skim once. Check out all the documentation here: https://fenestra.app/documentation
Sketch To Render

Inside, you’ll now find a mix of:
- short video walkthroughs for each tool
- real prompts you can reuse
- tutorials based on actual workflows
We’re also adding more over the next few days, along with live webinars.
Learn to work with 3D

If you’re new, or still getting used to the interface, the best place to start is the quick start guide: https://www.fenestra.app/documentation/getting-started/quick-start
It walks through the basics of the UI and shows how to go from a simple sketch to a render using Edit Mode. It is the fastest way to understand how everything fits together.
We’re also starting to organise things around real use cases. For example, if you’re working on interiors, we’ve put together a virtual staging tutorial that shows how to:
- use reference images properly inside Create Mode
- guide furniture and overall style
- get more consistent, usable outputs
