Anyone else using AI to visualise decor or house changes?
Discussion
We are at the moment trying to downsize (various reasons), house is in a chain, we are going through the usual paperwork / chain hell as we wait for it all to actually (hopefully) happen.
In the meantime, to try to look forward, I have been using AI to suggest colour schemes for decorating and to show what additions we make could look like on the type of house we are after.
It is a bit of fun to play with and has provided some interesting visuals. I am working on principles rather than perfectly rendered perspectives and images because it gets that quite wrong sometimes
As an example, I took a plain staircase and asked it to do a maximalist decor style.
Then to give ooptions on stair carpet
I asked it to build a catio on the back of a house for me.
I asked it what a garden office would look like at the end of a garden
.
I am sure gurus on here could do a better job
but I was genuinely surprised at what can be done. And it has given me a few ideas.
Anyone else had a go?

Yeah, I asked Grok to imagine what my shed would look like if I removed a few walls - https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...
Then I did ponder painting it with black barn paint (because I already had some) so I asked it what it would look like painted that way.
And make the dead grass and big patch of earth grassy too!
Didnt like that so used a stain/varnish instead.
Made it closer to what it looks like now and added some wisteria along the soffits.

Weirdly I had a go on Thursday night at visualising what a mid-century bureau would look like in our mildly mid-century styled back room. I then got a bit silly and added Barcelona and ex-Leeds forward Raphinha into the picture (to sell the idea to my missus really). Picked up the bureau Friday lunchtime, looks brilliant. Unfortunately for my missus, no Raphinha.
Love the idea above though of it creating a shopping list on how to achieve a certain look. Our understairs crapper needs a bit of a restyle so I'll get chatgpt to have a go later - I ran out of free image creation on Thursday night going stupid

We were redoing the downstairs loo (decoration and units) and we went with a “sea/beach” theme…..couldn’t find a splash back or tiles we liked so I used AI to create a “sunset wave” picture, played around with it until I was happy and it was HD enough and then had it printed on glass as a splash back online. We were pleased with the outcome.

Am I misreading this or is the top photo the original and the bottom one AI generated. It seems to have changed the camera angle to better frame the shot along the corridor which is interesting. And added an extra doorIn the meantime, to try to look forward, I have been using AI to suggest colour schemes for decorating and to show what additions we make could look like on the type of house we are after.

I also love that it moved the back door and nicked half the neighbours house on this one I've seen AI generated pictures cropping up in house adverts quite a lot, quite useful if the original photos are of an empty room to see it furnished, but you never know if it's got the scale right and that massive lounge with a couple of 3 seater sofas in it might actually only be big enough for a 2 seater and a chair

I like that idea.Ace-T said:
