London, summer and winter
19:00 on 21 June against 14:30 on 21 December: the evening sun from the west, then a low winter sun from the south-west.

The real sun for your place, date and hour, on a 3D model.
Get your house in 3D from a description, a floor plan or a sketch, then name the place, the date and the time. Mixos AI puts the sun where it really is, gives that day's sunrise and sunset, and shows the shadows on the house and the garden.

MADE IN MIXOS01 / HOW IT WORKS
Your house, your place, any day.
Check which side gets the evening sun, how low the winter sun sits and where the garden falls into shade before you buy, build or plant.
- 01
Get the house in 3D
Describe it, attach a floor plan or attach a sketch. Mixos AI builds the house with its windows, roof and garden.
- 02
Name the place and time
Say the town or the coordinates, the date and the local time. Mixos AI places the sun and reports its height, its direction and that day's sunrise and sunset.
- 03
Compare
Try a summer evening against a winter afternoon, from above or inside a room, and keep the views as shots.
REAL EXAMPLES

Every result below is unedited Mixos output. Inputs are public-domain or openly licensed drawings, drawings made for these examples, or AI-generated example photos.
New York, one winter day
9:30 and 15:00 on the winter solstice: the sun moves from the south-east to the south-west.

See the scene as you work.
The viewport makes the result visible. Inspect the shape, placement and materials before moving on to the next change.
Real sun, honest limits.
Where the sun really is
The sun is placed for the place, date and local time you give, with daylight saving if you say it. A time after dark is refused rather than faked.
Inside and out
See which rooms catch the morning or evening light, and add a warm room light to compare with the daylight.
Know the limits
Neighbouring buildings, trees and terrain appear only if you model them. It is a visual guide, not a certified daylight or planning shadow study.

THE BRIEF
“Create a sculptural perfume bottle on a warm stone set. Give it amber glass, brass details and dramatic studio lighting.”

A bottle. A mood. A whole campaign.

Questions about sun path over your house
Is Mixos AI available now?
Mixos AI is available in this build. Open the workspace with your Mixos account; conversational tools require paid access or unspent purchased credits. The expanded creation workspace is rolling out in preview builds.
How accurate is the sun position?
It uses the standard solar position formula for the place, date and time, accurate to a fraction of a degree, and gives sunrise and sunset within a few minutes.
Does it know my street?
No. It knows the sun, not the neighbourhood. Model the neighbouring buildings or trees if their shadows matter.
Can I submit it with a planning application?
No. Councils usually ask for shadow studies prepared by a licensed professional. Use this to understand the light, not to file.
What does it cost?
Placing the sun happens in the Mixos AI chat and uses chat credits. Studio renders of the result are free.
Which way is north?
Up the plan by default. If your plan's north arrow points another way, say so and the sun turns with it.
What is free, and what requires a paid plan?
Editing in the released Mixos apps is free with a Mixos account. AI generation consumes credits. Production exports require a paid plan or licence; the free plan includes a 512px watermarked render preview. See Pricing for current allowances. Watching the demonstrations on this page does not spend AI credits.
