Corona 13 - What's New in 2025

Architects know every detail counts. When presentation is everything, the right rendering tool can tip the scales from a good pitch to a signed contract. Corona 13 delivers practical upgrades that speed up work, improve realism and help teams present winning ideas. If you want to stay ahead in visualization, Corona 13 is the way to go.

What’s New in Corona 13?

Corona 13 brings new features designed for architectural workflows. Each tool is focused on faster production and stronger design visuals.

Enhanced Material Tools

Corona 13 introduces improved material options that enable you to create surfaces that look and feel realistic. Think about stone with crisp edges, glass with true-world reflections, or woods carrying every grain and knot.

• New material presets streamline setup.
• Advanced reflection controls give more control over gloss and depth.
• Realistic displacement mapping helps brick, concrete, and fabric stand out in close-ups.

Architects can spend less time tweaking while achieving results that wow even the toughest clients.

Faster Render Speeds

Corona 13 is faster than ever. Quick previews and final renders mean you can:

• Get feedback sooner
• Cut project downtime
• Respond to client changes without losing hours

Faster rendering equals more projects finished, and more clients impressed in less time.

Greater Compatibility with Latest 3D Tools

Corona 13 stays up-to-date with the latest versions of popular modeling software. Integration is smooth with tools like 3ds Max and Cinema 4D.

• Fewer compatibility errors
• Reliable imports and exports
• Smooth collaboration with colleagues and consultants

Teams avoid tech headaches, and everyone works from the same page.

Improved Lighting and Realism for Design Presentations

Lighting makes or breaks a visualization. Corona 13 continues to set new standards for believable light and shadow.

Advanced LightMix Updates

The new LightMix workflow lets you adjust sunlight, artificial lights, and sky color—even after rendering. Think of it like dimmer switches for your design.

• Try multiple lighting moods without re-rendering
• Show day, dusk, and night in one session
• Fine-tune atmosphere with easy sliders

Proof your concept in every season or weather, and let clients “walk through” the building any time of day.

Better Handling of Interior and Exterior Scenes

Mixed spaces challenge many renderers. With Corona 13, both bright exteriors and detailed interiors look crisp.

• Balanced brightness, no burnt highlights or dark corners
• Natural shadows on both sunny plazas and inside corridors
• Details shine in both indoor finishes and outdoor landscaping

You tell an honest story about the space, before a single brick is laid.

How Corona 13 Boosts Productivity and Collaboration

Better tools mean smarter workflows. Corona 13 makes teamwork faster and pain-free.

Streamlined Scene Management

New organizational tools help architects keep large models easy to manage.

• Tag and group assets for easy updates
• Scene folders and layers cut confusion on big projects
• You and your team find what you need without hunting through endless lists

Mistakes go down, and production moves faster.

Easy Integration in Studio Pipelines

Corona 13 drops easily into existing workflows.

• Share files with partners or consultants who use similar tools
• Save time on importing, exporting, and adapting
• Focus on design, not software hassles

This means smooth proofing, reviews, and sign-offs.
