"Shot a vacant condo for my portfolio. Added a mid-century modern living room setup in 30 seconds. Client thought I rented staging furniture. Landed the design contract that week." @InteriorsByKim

Built for Interior Design Professionals

Empty rooms don't showcase design potential to clients
Client's clutter ruins portfolio shots
Poor lighting makes beautiful spaces look dingy
Existing furniture doesn't match proposed design concept
Outdated finishes distract from spatial flow
Bad window views hurt otherwise perfect room shots

Interior design portfolios live and die by photo quality. Empty rooms need staging, occupied spaces need decluttering, and every shot needs perfect lighting. Traditional virtual staging costs $50-100 per image with 24-48 hour turnaround. EditThisPic lets you describe what you envision and see it in seconds.

How to AI Photo Editor for Interior Design Photos

  1. Upload your interior photo

    Drop your room image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Works with empty rooms, furnished spaces, before-renovation shots, and completed projects. Whether it's a dark basement or a bright loft, upload what you have.

    Simple edits like lighting enhancement: 20-30 seconds. Complex virtual staging: may need 2-3 refinements.
  2. Describe your vision in plain English

    Type what you need: 'virtually stage this empty room with contemporary furniture and warm lighting' or 'remove all the clutter and show the clean space.' Be specific about style, colors, and atmosphere. No marking or selection needed - the AI understands interior design terminology.

    Include design style keywords: 'mid-century modern,' 'Scandinavian minimalist,' 'industrial loft,' 'coastal farmhouse' for accurate furniture selection.
  3. Review and download

    Check furniture placement and scale, lighting balance, and material textures. For virtual staging, verify furniture looks natural in the space. For decluttering, ensure personal items are gone but architectural features remain. Download your portfolio-ready image.

  4. Refine specific areas if needed

    If furniture scale needs adjustment or the AI missed some clutter, tap a marker on that exact spot and regenerate. Common refinements: adjusting furniture placement, removing specific items the AI missed, or tweaking lighting in certain areas.

    Most edits work on the first try. Markers help when you need to say 'move THIS piece' or 'remove THAT item specifically.'

When Things Go Wrong

Virtual furniture looks out of scale

Why: The AI may misjudge room dimensions from perspective, leading to furniture that's too large or small.

Try: Tap markers on the furniture that's wrong sized, then: adjust the furniture scale to match the room proportions, the [sofa/table] should be smaller/larger

Mentioning a reference object helps: 'the sofa should be sized for a 12-foot wide room.'

AI changed the wrong area

Why: When multiple similar items exist or the instruction was ambiguous, the AI may pick incorrectly.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific item you want changed, then regenerate with the same prompt

Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS one specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Decluttering removed architectural features

Why: The AI sometimes interprets 'remove clutter' too broadly and takes decorative molding or built-ins.

Try: remove clutter and personal items only, keep all architectural features like molding, built-in shelves, and fireplace mantel

Be specific about what to preserve: 'keep the crown molding, wainscoting, and built-in bookshelf.'

Staged furniture style doesn't match request

Why: Generic terms like 'modern' can be interpreted differently. The AI needs specific style cues.

Try: remove the furniture and restage with [specific style] furniture, like [designer name] or [era] pieces in [specific materials]

Reference specific designers or eras: 'Eames-inspired,' 'Danish modern,' 'restoration hardware style.'

Lighting enhancement made some areas too bright

Why: Global lighting adjustments can over-brighten areas that were already well-lit.

Try: Tap markers on the too-bright areas, then: balance the lighting in these areas, reduce the brightness while keeping the rest of the room well-lit

Markers let you target specific areas for adjustment rather than the whole image.
