Steps
Once connected (see setup above), use the Interior Design tool:
- Provide your outdoor photo and describe the style, budget level, and any hard constraints.
- Run `outdoor_design` via interior-design to generate the landscaping render.
- Ask ChatGPT to write a planting list and materials spec based on what is shown in the render.
- Have ChatGPT format the render and spec into a landscaper brief you can send directly.
Example Prompt
Try this with ChatGPT using the Interior Design tool
Use interior-design with outdoor_design to redesign this decked terrace into a contemporary outdoor dining space with built-in seating, outdoor lighting, and potted planting. Return the render and write a materials and planting list I can hand to a landscaper.
Tips
- Ask for a plant list with common names, not just design terms, so your landscaper can source them directly.
- Include approximate dimensions in your prompt so scale-sensitive features like built-in seating are credible.
- Package the render and brief as a single document to avoid context being lost between conversations.
