Artificial intelligence is changing the way we work, entertain ourselves and relate to others. There is no shortage of risks and criticalities, but the benefits are also very clear: increased productivity, faster execution of repetitive tasks, increased precision and reduced margins of error. In many cases, then, AI makes tasks that were previously complex and reserved for insiders extremely simple.
This is the case in interior design. Artificial intelligence tools are used on a daily basis by architects, designers and real estate agencies to design buildings and renovations and to present the final results to clients in an extremely effective way thanks to 3D renderings and processing.
Projects within everyone’s reach
And many apps allow even those without specific training or experience to try their hand at creating projects to furnish their home or change its appearance, achieving excellent results. One can start from scratch, with an empty floor plan to be filled with furniture and objects of all kinds, or simply experiment with the effect one would have by changing the colours of the walls, or inserting a new sofa.
AI-based interior design tools make it possible to create customised designs based on each user’s needs, preferences and taste, to use augmented reality to virtually place furniture in a room, and to select colours and materials.
Each app offers a ‘library’ of furniture and objects to choose from, and it is also possible to insert, via photos taken with the smartphone or tablet, a piece of furniture we have or want to buy.
If you don’t like the effect, changing the design is quick and easy: the highly realistic 3D layouts, renderings and real-time simulations allow you to check the results immediately and make quick decisions on any changes.
This reduces errors, speeds up the design process and results in a more accurate end result.
A wide choice
As anticipated, the choice of AI tools for interior design is very wide. Almost all of them offer a version for professionals and one, simpler and with fewer tools (e.g. a more limited library of furniture and objects), which is free and dedicated to the broader public. The choice depends on one’s needs, one’s intended use and one’s familiarity with digital tools.
Below are some of the most interesting apps. The list is partial and constantly updated and the advice, for those who want to start designing their home with artificial intelligence, is to try some of them. You will certainly find one to try your hand at interior design with. Perhaps for your new home in Forte dei Marmi!
