WHY WE GAVE IT 9.1/10

It separates visible evidence from guesses, asks for the missing dimensions and constraints, and prioritises realistic changes before shopping. The visual mock-up is useful for direction—not as a measured plan.

WORKS

Photo analysis and image editing make this genuinely useful for direction. It is not a measured interior plan, so the prompt separates visible evidence from assumptions and requires dimensions, swatches and qualified help where needed.

YOUR PROMPT

2966 characters
I will upload one to four photos of the same room. Help me redesign it using the photos as visual evidence—not as reliable measurements.

My goal: feel warmer, less empty and easier to use every day
Maximum budget: €500
Location and currency: Denmark / DKK
I am a: renter
Preferred style: warm Scandinavian, simple and lived-in
Items that must stay: sofa, TV, console, coffee table, rug and curtains
Practical, safety or accessibility limits: no drilling, no electrical work and clear walking paths

Before recommending anything:
1. List what you can clearly see.
2. List what is uncertain, hidden or impossible to measure from the photos.
3. Ask no more than six short questions that would materially change the plan. Include room dimensions and the positions of doors, windows, radiators and outlets if I have not supplied them.
4. Wait for my answers.

Then create the plan in this order:

A. DIAGNOSIS
- Name the five biggest issues affecting function or visual balance.
- Tie every observation to something visible in a photo.
- Label uncertain observations as assumptions.

B. PRIORITY PLAN
- TODAY: free changes using what I already own.
- THIS WEEKEND: low-cost, renter-safe improvements.
- LATER: optional purchases or professional work.
- For each action, state the expected benefit, estimated effort and budget share.

C. LAYOUT
- Give a clear furniture arrangement and walking paths.
- Use exact distances only when I provided measurements; otherwise use relative placement and say what I should measure before moving anything.
- Preserve every item listed under KEEP unless you explain a strong reason to challenge it.

D. COLOUR, LIGHTING AND MATERIALS
- Recommend a palette direction, lighting temperature, lamp placement, textiles and finishes that work with the visible room.
- Do not claim an exact paint match from a photo. Tell me to test physical swatches in the room at different times of day.

E. SHOPPING LIST
- Recommend the smallest number of purchases needed, ordered by impact.
- Give target dimensions or ranges where possible.
- If live web access is available, use current products and prices from my location, include direct links and state the date checked. Otherwise give specifications and realistic price ranges without inventing live products or availability.

F. VISUAL PREVIEW
- If image editing is available, create one realistic AFTER concept using my uploaded photo. Preserve the room geometry, doors, windows, floor, ceiling, fixed installations and the major furniture I am keeping. Change only the items in the approved plan.
- Label it clearly as a concept visualisation, not a measured or guaranteed result.
- If image editing is unavailable, give me a copyable image-edit prompt instead.

Finish with three things that could make the plan fail and how to check them before spending money.

Do not recommend structural, electrical, plumbing or fire-safety work as DIY. Flag anything that needs a qualified professional.

WHY TRY IT?

Most room prompts jump straight from one photo to a fantasy makeover. This one first checks how you live, what must stay, what you can spend and which details the photo cannot prove.

Turn room photos into a realistic, budget-aware makeover plan without pretending AI can measure through a camera.

EXAMPLE RESULT

TODAY: restyle the console and improve the walking path. THIS WEEKEND: add one feature colour, large removable art, warm textiles and plug-in lighting. CONCEPT VISUALISATION: direction only—verify dimensions and physical colour swatches before buying.
💡
A small tip

Photograph the room from two opposite corners in daylight. Add one straight-on photo of the wall you most want to change, and provide a rough floor plan with measurements if layout matters.

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN WE TESTED IT

Photo analysis and image editing make this genuinely useful for direction. It is not a measured interior plan, so the prompt separates visible evidence from assumptions and requires dimensions, swatches and qualified help where needed.

We rewrote the viral version to be more honest, more useful and less likely to overclaim. The prompt above is our better version.
