Capability
Extract discussable color, material, and surface-treatment directions from product form for concept reviews and client presentations.
The model infers material appearance from visible reflections, texture, and color; it cannot confirm material grade, thickness, process parameters, supplier, or cost. This tool communicates CMF visual direction only; it does not produce a BOM, purchasing list, engineering material specification, or production approval sample.
Extract discussable color, material, and surface-treatment directions from product form for concept reviews and client presentations.
The model infers material appearance from visible reflections, texture, and color; it cannot confirm material grade, thickness, process parameters, supplier, or cost.
Upload one product image, then choose a CMF board style and a 16:9–9:16 image ratio.
This tool communicates CMF visual direction only; it does not produce a BOM, purchasing list, engineering material specification, or production approval sample.
Prepare the input
Clear source material and an explicit design objective give the model better evidence to work from. Use these checks before generation.
one product image with clear form and surface detail Use a complete product view under neutral light without strong filters, and define the CMF direction you want to discuss.

How to use
Keep the first pass exploratory, compare alternatives, then carry the selected direction into the rest of the project.

Use a complete product view under neutral light without strong filters, and define the CMF direction you want to discuss. Prepare these inputs: Upload product image. Include optional inputs when needed.

Set CMF board style, Image ratio for this task, then confirm before generating.
