Cool! Just tried it out with my partner (in the process of designing their living room in a new place). UX suggestion: let me select a new style without having to re-upload the photo. We wanted to check out a bunch of styles on the same photo, but doing so took 10 clicks instead of just 1!

Thank you for the feedback! will implement this feature for sure

90% of what is generated is not doable. You cannot just add a new window like that, or change the view you have. Also the furniture that is generated doesn't exist as it is generated as well, so how are you actually supposed to buy it?

Hi, thank you for your feedback. Currently, the product is intended for inspiration purposes only.

It looks more like it's re-skinning a room/space rather than trying different design ideas - all the elements remain where they are, but are restyled. I think a big contribution of an interior designer is their ability to see potential in a space and reorganize it in a way that works better for a purpose / feels better to be in. This in comparison seems "skin deep"

Hi, thanks for the feedback. The upcoming version will allow you to modify results using prompts.

Really cool. My girlfriend is into interior design and I've been showing her projects like this as they come along: in her view these are some of the best results yet. A few first impressions though: - They need to add a filter to the uploaded images (or at very least curate the front page), maybe some kind of classifier that determines if people are in it. This kid [1] is all over the examples if you click "load mor…

Hi, thanks for the feedback! NSFW image filter will be added into the pipeline, and the upcoming version will allow you to modify results using prompts.

I love it!

It'd be nice if there was a way to say what is and is not changeable.

For example, I noticed it usually improves the view outside of the windows to be beautiful vistas -- not something you can do without moving. Being able to request that other things not change, like the floor plan or the flooring for example, would be nice.

I like how the AI will randomly turn furniture into a dog, as if to say, "improve this room with a furry friend." :)

This tool is cool but my biggest takeaway is that the key to attractive interior decor is better lighting.

Light in general is a huge asset when wanting to change the aesthetics of anything really, people really underestimate the impact of light.

Game looking a bit boring? Improve the lightning, instantly better

Boring photos of people? Consider how the light traverses the scene you're capturing, and they become much better

Bathroom looking dull? One well placed lamp can change it entirely.

Want to make cool professional videos? Purchase one nice production lamp and you're like 90% there already.

Take the designs to a craftsman? If AI inspires a resurgence in craftspeople using their skills to create truly bespoke pieces, that'd be a very good thing.
