ChatGPT works well when the redesign outputs need to land in a presentation or client-facing document. You can run the renders and have ChatGPT write up the design rationale, material choices, and next steps in a format that is easy to hand off to a contractor or designer.

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Interior Design tool:

  1. Describe your room and the style you want to achieve, including any non-negotiables like existing furniture you are keeping.
  2. Ask ChatGPT to run `redesign_room` via interior-design with your photo and style direction.
  3. Have ChatGPT write a short design brief for the render — what changed, why it works, and what a designer would need to execute it.
  4. Request a second render in a contrasting style and have ChatGPT compare the two with a recommendation.
  5. Export the renders plus the written brief as a PDF or doc to share.

Example Prompt

Try this with ChatGPT using the Interior Design tool
Use interior-design to redesign this kitchen in a modern farmhouse style — white shaker cabinets, brass hardware, exposed shelving. Return the render and write a short design brief I can send to my kitchen fitter.

Tips

  • Ask ChatGPT to write a material list alongside the render so your contractor knows exactly what to source.
  • Include constraints like 'keep the existing island' in your prompt so the render stays grounded in reality.
  • Have ChatGPT compare two style renders with a single recommendation so you arrive at decisions faster.
