The Use of AI in Interior Decorating
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has profoundly influenced virtually all industries, including interior design. With the ongoing development of advanced AI platforms, it is essential for interior designers to proactively incorporate these technologies into their practice to sustain relevance and competitiveness.
We are having to keep up with social media platforms and share regular posts, videos, reels etc of projects. The use of AI enables us to creatively edit and share our vision with present and perspective clients.
More and more AI platforms are available to the public to create your own vision. They range from complete room overhauls, restyle a room fully furnished and styled, create lighting for a room, generate a cohesive colour palette, suggest specific materials ie sustainable wood and keep up with modern interior trends.
Certain AI platforms provide free access or affordable subscriptions, making them much less expensive than standard consulting services. Tasks that once required days of sketching or mood-boarding can now be completed almost instantly. Design measurements generated automatically from 3D scans guarantee an accurate fit within actual spaces.
Top AI Interior Design Apps leading into 2026
Planner 5D: An intuitive platform allowing for quick 2D/3D floor plan creation, design and layouts.
Decor8 AI: Has over 56 design styles, virtual staging and photo transformations.
ReimagineHome: Allows users to capture images of their existing rooms and redesign them to visualize potential renovations.
Coohom: Offers an extensive selection of furniture and delivers high-quality 3D rendering.
VisualizeAI: can be used in interior and product design, letting users specify which elements they want to include or remove from a scene using prompts.
Interior Designers can use AI tools to quickly generate lifelike space renderings, a task that used to require hours or days manually. Interactive design features and predictive analysis helps designers work more efficiently and come up with creative solutions.
There are features for furniture placement and space optimisation, analysing a room's basic floor plan to offer personalised suggestions that make the most of available space. These tools are particularly helpful for designers aiming to create a sense of spaciousness or improve functionality in small or unusually shaped rooms.
Latest AI design platforms include advanced lighting features, enabling designers to experiment with various lighting options for optimal results.
And life is a little simpler with the assistance of colour selection when offered a range of potential palettes tailored to factors such as room size, furnishings, and preferences. These tools provide designers and clients with an effective means to visualise various colour schemes, enabling informed decisions that may not have been previously considered.
Rather than substituting creative vision with AI, many designers employ it to rapidly generate a variety of ideas. For instance, a designer could create five distinct concepts for a client within minutes, then rely on their professional judgment to polish the most promising option into a workable, actionable plan.
It is important to understand that AI tools are imperfect with plenty of glitches, as may be evidenced in a rendering of a room that shows a Painting in the middle of a curtain, or a set of throw cushions on a shelf. Although these technologies are expected to advance, interior designers recognise AI's current limitations and adapt accordingly to achieve optimal outcomes.
So don’t rule out the importance or an Interior Designer / Decorator.
