AI in Interior Design
AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning
Artificial intelligence, in the modern sense of the term, first appeared in the 1950s. Simply put, the concept, which can be called General AI, originally implied something that was an artificially created copy of human thinking capable of learning and displaying emotions.
Even in the 2020s, a robot that could plan and design our apartment or house like a professional human designer is still in the distant future. However, things are not that bad. Starting in the 1980s, machine learning began to flourish. This is a subset of artificial intelligence that deals with the creation of algorithms that can modify itself without human intervention to produce the desired output by feeding itself through structured data. Machine learning has become possible thanks to the exposure of a huge amount of information from all sectors of the economy, typically called big data. A human is only needed here to structure and label the data.
Later, beginning in the 2010s, the more advanced deep learning caused a real AI boom among innovators and developers. Deep learning is a subset of machine learning that has networks capable of processing unstructured and unlabeled data.
What Can AI Bring to the Interior Design Field?
The technologies that can be referred to as Narrow AI have brought us to a completely new level. Computers or, to be more precise, the increase in GPU performance, has enabled people to start creating software that can not only be programmed to predict certain actions but also learn from its own mistakes. This is not a 100% replacement for the designer, but it is already a full functional assistant. What does this technology bring to the world of interior design and how will it affect this billion-dollar industry in the future? We will try to figure it out.

Speed Up the Work Process
To begin with, this technological revolution brings both good and bad news to interior design professionals. On the good side, it will speed up the work process since the primary selection of colors, styles and variations of the project, the choice of furniture and the furnishing options are becoming a lot easier and faster. Some apps have already learned to recognize blueprints and convert them to a digital model, which can later become a customized project.
LiDAR Advantages
More promising and advantageous is the usage of AI-powered LiDAR technology, together with Augmented Reality, which allows you to get a digital model of the objects and interior of a house or apartment by simply scanning it with your smartphone or tablet.

A Side Effect of AI
What is the negative side? As in any industry touched by automation, the acceleration of processes, as a rule, has led to the reduction of human jobs. But, on the other hand, as analysts say, over the next five years, AI will affect almost every industry, and if you are not ready for the progress and cannot adapt to the market changes, your competitors will defeat you.
Digital Personal Assistant
What does this technology bring to a non-professional user? Only good things. For example, a digital personal assistant powered by Machine Learning or Deep Learning technology can turn a novice into a good designer without any significant cost. It will recommend the best solutions that might satisfy a user by analyzing thousands or even millions of earlier cases.
Practical Example of AI Usage
Let's review a few cases in which AI could come in handy. Suppose you installed an app on your smartphone or tablet. Using a phone or tablet camera with the LiDAR sensor, you can easily scan your room and get its digital model in the blink of an eye. In the modern world, adding objects to such a model is typically carried out manually by adding furniture from the built-in library and applying the necessary materials.
But, what if the program will do this for you? For example, upon scanning, it will present a variety of finished designs of your house or apartment, already furnished and designed in different color schemes.
Capability of Learning and Self-Improvement
Lets explore this even further. One of the advantages of working with a human designer is their ability to make non-standard decisions after getting a better knowledge of the client. How can AI, in its current form, achieve such a result? Actually, it can cope with this better and better as modern software based on Deep Learning is able to be mastered.
Before creating possible design variants, the app may ask the user to fill out a short questionnaire: choosing your favorite style, colors, interior accents, desired materials and even your favorite rock band. All of this information will increase the probability of creating the ideal design variant. Further, the obtained data can be compared with the database in which such tasks have already been solved, and voil! The design tailored to your personal taste is now ready!
Whats more, the app will remember which design you chose, and, in a similar case with a new user, it will offer that design first.
Redesign your interior in seconds using AI
Do you have an affiliate program?
Yes we do! When you join Interior AI's affiliate program you receive a 30% commission on payments for all customers you refer!
How does Interior AI's AI Interior Designer work?
Interior AI lets you upload photos of your current interior, select a style and redesign it. It takes half a minute to generate and then you get photorealistic renders of your new interior. And best of all, you can do all this from your laptop or phone without having to pay an expensive interior designer $100s or $1000s.After sign up you get access to Interior AI's studio which lets you use 30+ room types and 50+ interior styles.
What AI model do you use?
Interior AI uses our own AI generation pipeline which is trained for high photorealism. We keep working on improving it, with better photorealistic data sets, using reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) by users like you which constantly improves our models. All of this to get you better more photorealistic renders.
How much does Interior AI cost?
You can check current pricing by entering your email in the sign up box and following the link to see the pricing table. You get 2 months free if you subscribe annually. You can cancel at any time.
Do you have an iOS app?
Not yet, but very soon!
What do the different modes do?
Interior AI has different modes for different purposes. [ Interior design with 3D Vision ] tries to maintain the interior of your current room while changing its style. [ Interior design (2D photo) ] is the same but manipulates the space more and does not stick to the 3d objects like furniture that's already in the room. [ Virtual Staging AI ] is specifically to fill up empty spaces and stage them with furniture. [ Freestyle ] does not require any input photo, and just generates interior designs from scratch based on the style and room type you picked. [ Sketch2Image ] converts your interior sketches directly into photorealistic renderings. And finally [ SketchUp ] lets you upload a screenshot from your SketchUp design and it will transform it into a photorealistic render.
Can real estate agents use Interior AI?
Yes, Interior AI has a special Virtual Staging AI mode, which lets you fill empty spaces with furniture while maintaing the building's construction. Simple upload a photo, select the room type, and interior design style you'd like to see. Then under Mode, select [ Virtual Staging AI ] and tap [ Render ].
My payment card is not accepted when signing up?
Due to lots of fraud attempts, we've had to increase our payment security. Firstly, disable your VPN or proxy server. Then make sure your name, CVC and postal code match the one on your payment card and of your bank account. Also your card country should be the same as your billing country. And finally make sure you enable 3D Secure or similar authentication on your card with your bank.
What type of photos should I upload as my current interior?
We recommend uploading photos with in a straight angle towards a wall or window. Photos from angles do work but perform worse than straight photos. Make sure the photo is sharp and clearly lit. The resulting output is heavily reliant on the photo you upload as input.
What file formats of photos do you accept as my current interior?
We accept JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF files only. HEIC is not supported now, so you'll have to convert those to JPG first
How long will it take to take an AI photo?
Based on the current processing times, it takes about 143 seconds to take one photo. You can take up to 16 photos in parallel though!
What will you do with my interior photos?
We only use your photos to create AI interior design renders. Your data privacy and security are our top priorities.
Who built and is behind Interior AI?
This service was built by me, Pieter Levels (@levelsio), a Dutch indie entrepreneur known for other projects like Nomad List, Remote OK, Photo AI and Applicant AI.
How much will the AI interior designs look like my current interior?
The resemblance of your interior depends on the quality of photo you upload. The better your photos, the more accurately the AI can understand and represent your home's unique characteristics. We keep improving our models every day.
Will the photos have AI artefacts?
Sometimes yes. Depending on the quality of the uploaded photo, and the type of designs you render, you might see some AI artefacts. Any app that uses generative AI imaging will have artefacts. They can be illogical things like chairs with too few legs, illogical construction etc. From our experience, about 95% of renders you make will be good enough, and 5% will be exceptionally good. We also have an editor so you can brush away artefacts yourself and regenerate those parts. We're improving Interior AI every day to reduce artefacts for example by auto-detecting them and then re-trying. But remember it's not perfect yet and we're not promising it is!
Is the payment service secure?
Yes, our payment service is secure. We use Stripe for financial processing, and we do not store any information about your card. Stripe ensures bank-level security standards.
What methods of payment do you accept?
We accept payments via credit or debit cards, including MasterCard, VISA, American Express, as well as iDeal, SOFORT, Bancontact, Przelewy24, Giropay, EPS, GrabPay, AliPay, and many more. However, we do not accept PayPal or cryptocurrency and are not planning to.
Can I get a refund?
Unfortunately, we cannot offer refunds as costs incurred for generating AI images are extremely high. In turn, our upstream providers do not let us ask for refunds for the GPU processing time used to generate your AI interior designs. This would make it a loss making endeavor for us. During sign up you agree to withhold your right to refund for this reason.
