Steps
Once connected (see setup above), use the Interior Design tool:
- Share the room photo and describe the target buyer — for example, 'young professional, minimalist taste, urban apartment'.
- If the room has existing furniture, ask Claude to run `empty_room` first to clear it.
- Run `stage_room` to furnish the cleared space in the chosen style.
- Ask Claude to critique the result — scale, focal points, and whether it reads well as a listing photo.
- Iterate with `add_furniture` to swap individual pieces until the staging is right.
Example Prompt
Try this with Claude using the Interior Design tool
Use interior-design to stage this empty living room for a young professional buyer. Clear any existing items with empty_room first, then furnish in a contemporary style with a neutral palette. Critique the result and suggest one piece of furniture to swap for a warmer feel.
Tips
- Run `empty_room` before staging if the original photo has any existing furniture or clutter.
- Describe the target buyer explicitly — it anchors the furniture choices to a real audience.
- Ask Claude to check that furniture scale looks realistic before you approve the render for listing use.
