FEATURE LAYERS FOR RENDERING OF DESIGN OPTIONS
Systems and methods are provided for generating electronic renderings using feature layers. A set of sample electronic renderings can be generated for a virtual space based on feature data (e.g., including a set of features of the virtual space). Rendering data can be determined based on the set of sample electronic renderings, wherein the rendering data includes a set of feature layers, and wherein each feature layer is associated with at least one feature of the set of features. A rendering request can be received, the rendering request including a subset of features and associated feature parameters selected from the set of features as selected feature data, and an electronic rendering can be generated of the virtual space based on the selected feature data and one or more of the feature layers.
