Brava Roof Tile, a manufacturer of beautifully authentic, high-performance synthetic roofing alternatives for cedar shake, slate, and Spanish barrel tiles, announces a new partnership with Lightbeans, a leader in material digitization and visualization technology. Through this collaboration, Brava’s full library of roofing textures and colors is now available to the architecture and design (A&D) community directly within leading 3D modeling and rendering platforms.
Design professionals can now access Brava’s digital materials through both the Brava website and the Lightbeans platform, offering seamless integration across various tools, including Revit, SketchUp, Rhino, 3ds Max, Enscape, Twinmotion, and V-Ray. The ready-to-use files enable architects to simply drag and drop Brava tiles into their digital models, allowing them to see in real—time how various colors and profiles complement their designs. This integration eliminates guesswork, streamlines the specification process, and enables professionals to evaluate aesthetics, scale, and performance before requesting a physical sample.

“Our partnership with Lightbeans underscores our commitment to advancing sustainable and high-performance building solutions,” says Brian Davis, Vice President of Technical Services at Brava Roof Tile. “Together, we’re combining Lightbeans’ cutting-edge lighting and 3-D texture technology with our expertise in resilient design. The result is a powerful tool that allows architects and designers to render their roofs with the authentic aesthetic of Brava tiles.”
The partnership underscores Brava’s long-term commitment to building a healthier future through the use of composite materials. Brava’s synthetic roof tiles utilize the brand’s patented mineral-infusion process, which ensures that no two Brava tiles are exactly alike, replicating the authenticity and beauty of natural tiles while offering the most color options in the market, along with added environmental benefits. Additionally, all Brava products are Class 4 impact-rated, the highest rating in the industry, offering the highest standards for wind, fire, and impact resistance, as well as UV resistance.
Beyond accessibility, Brava’s integration with Lightbeans provides valuable data insights for future product development, revealing which colors, textures, and regions drive the most engagement. This information helps guide innovation and strengthens Brava’s alignment with the evolving needs of the A&D community.
