How it works

  1. Upload your two photos

    Drop your living room photo into EditThisPic, then click '+ Add reference image' to upload your sofa photo — from a retailer website, store floor photo, or any catalog image. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB each. The room photo should show the main wall clearly so the AI understands where the sofa will anchor the space.

    Expect: Standard sofa placement: 20-30 seconds. Sectional or L-shaped sofa: may need 2 passes for corner configuration.
  2. The reference photo does the heavy lifting

    This is the key step — the AI reads your sofa reference to capture the exact upholstery color and texture, leg style and material, arm height and cushion configuration, and overall silhouette. It then positions this specific sofa in your room rather than generating a generic couch. The result reflects the actual piece you're considering.

    Tip: Retailer product photos on white or neutral backgrounds give the AI the clearest read on the sofa's actual appearance.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Centered sofa against main wall add this sofa centered against the main wall, facing the TV area, with a natural shadow grounded on the floor and the upholstery texture matching the reference
    Sectional with chaise add this L-shaped sectional sofa in the corner with the chaise extending to the right, leaving a clear walkway on the left side of the room
    Sofa facing a fireplace add this sofa centered in front of the fireplace, angled slightly inward, with warm fireplace light reflecting off the upholstery
    Visualizing before buying add this exact sofa from the online listing into my living room at realistic scale, showing the fabric color accurately under the room's current lighting
    2 more prompts
    Velvet or textured sofa add this velvet sofa from the reference against the wall, with the light catching the fabric pile as it would in a room with natural daylight from the left
    Sofa in a living room staging for a listing add this sofa as the living room's anchor piece, staged for a real estate listing photo — proportional scale, natural lighting, inviting arrangement that helps buyers envision the space
  3. Describe the placement

    Sofas are the living room's focal point — be specific about position: 'add this sofa centered against the main wall, facing the fireplace' or 'place this sectional in the L-shaped corner with the chaise on the right.' Include orientation (facing the TV, facing the window) and any other pieces nearby: 'with a coffee table in front.'

    Tip: Mention the sofa's orientation in relation to the room's focal point — fireplace, TV, window — for the most natural-looking placement.

    Sectional with chaise add this L-shaped sectional sofa in the corner with the chaise extending to the right, leaving a clear walkway on the left side of the room

  4. Check the result looks lived-in

    A sofa should look like it belongs — grounded on the floor with a natural shadow, proportional to the room walls, and oriented toward the room's focal point. Check that the upholstery texture renders realistically and the leg style matches what was in the reference. If the sofa floats or looks too small, add a prompt to correct scale and grounding.

Quick answers

Do I need TWO photos for this?

Yes. This is a two-photo workflow: your room photo plus a reference photo of the sofa you want to add. Upload your room photo first, then click '+ Add reference image' to add the sofa reference. The AI uses the reference to reproduce the exact couch — upholstery, shape, leg style — rather than generating a generic sofa.

Can I use a retailer listing photo as my sofa reference?

Yes. Retailer product photos, catalog images, store floor photos, or any clear image of the sofa work as references. Product-on-white-background photos give the AI the cleanest read on the sofa's actual appearance. Screenshot the listing photo and upload it as your reference image.

How do I see what a specific sofa looks like in my living room before buying?

Take a photo of your living room (or use an existing one), then screenshot the sofa's product listing. Upload both to EditThisPic with the room as the main photo and the listing screenshot as the reference. Type 'add this sofa against the main wall' — you'll see the exact piece in your actual room in under 30 seconds. Free, no account needed.

Does this work for sectional sofas?

Yes. For sectionals, specify the configuration in your prompt: 'add this L-shaped sectional with the chaise on the right side' or 'place the ottoman section facing the window.' The AI handles L-shaped and U-shaped sectionals — just be explicit about which arm has the chaise and the overall corner arrangement.

Can this help me stage an empty living room for a real estate listing?

Yes. Upload the empty room photo and a reference sofa image, then describe staging placement: 'add this sofa as the living room anchor piece, centered and proportional for an MLS listing photo.' The sofa is typically the most impactful piece in living room staging — it transforms a vacant space into something buyers can picture themselves in. Always disclose virtual staging per local rules.
