How Can I Try a Different Style?

After creating an AI Render, you can use a pre-made style to give the image a new look. 

  1. Create an AI Render.
    Or open a saved AI Render and click AI Edit in the top right. 
  2. In the Edit Image panel on the right, select Styles
  3. Choose on of the available styles.
  4. Click Generate.

AI Render creates a new version of the image using the selected style. Your previous version remains available in the image list at the bottom, so you can compare the results or return to an earlier version.

Tip: Styles are useful when you want to quickly explore a completely different look without describing every detail yourself.

When you apply a style, only the AI-generated image is changed. Your RoomSketcher project remains unchanged. To permanently change the project, edit it in the RoomSketcher App.

 

How Can I Change an AI Render With a Text Prompt?

Use a text prompt when you want to make a specific change to an existing AI Render. For example, you can change:

  • Wall colors, flooring and materials
  • Furniture, curtains and decorations
  • Lighting, the weather or atmosphere
  • The overall interior style
  • People or other objects in the scene

To edit an AI Render:

  1. Create an AI Render.
    Or open a saved AI Render and click AI Edit in the top right. 
  2. In the Edit Image panel, click Text Prompt.
  3. Describe the change you want to make.
  4. Click Generate.

AI Render creates a new version based on your instructions.

For example:

Replace the orchid on the table with a fruit bowl. Keep everything else the same.

When you apply a style, only the AI-generated image is changed. Your RoomSketcher project remains unchanged. To permanently change the project, edit it in the RoomSketcher App.

 

Tips for Writing a Good Prompt

  • Be clear about what you want to change and what the result should look like. 
  • Short text works best. 
  • Start with one change, then build on it with new AI renders.
  • Describe exactly where the item is located that you want to change, especially if there are several similar objects. For example, write "change the wall behind the sofa" or "replace the orchid on the table" instead of referring only to "the wall" or "the plant."
  • Include useful details such as colors, materials, finishes, and quantities.
  • Add "Keep everything else the same" when you do not want other parts of the image to change.

See our AI Render Prompt Guide and Inspiration for more tips and example prompts. The guide includes advice on writing specific prompts, changing one element at a time, using interior styles, and working with reference images.

The Prompt Guide is also linked from the little bulb icon within the prompt text field.
 

How Can I Upload a Reference Image?

You can include an image with your text prompt. This is useful when you want AI Render to use a specific piece of furniture, material, pattern, color, or design as a reference.

  1. Create an AI Render.
    Or open a saved AI Render and click AI Edit in the top right. 
  2. In the Edit Image panel, click Text Prompt.
  3. Click the image upload icon within the prompt field.
  4. Select an image from your device.
  5. Write what you want AI Render to do with the reference image.
  6. Click Generate.

For example:

Replace all dining chairs with the chair from the uploaded image. Match its design, proportions, material, finish, and color. Keep everything else unchanged.

Tip: Explain exactly which item in the room should be changed and which details from the reference image should be used.

 

Review, Save, and Download the AI Render

When the render is ready, you will see a before-and-after view. Use the slider to compare the original Live 3D image, snapshot, 3D Photo, or 3D Floor Pan and the new AI Render.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I make AI Renders in the RoomSketcher App?
No. AI Render is only available in the RoomSketcher Web Portal. This means you can create, view, save, download, and delete AI Renders in web portal, but not in the RoomSketcher App. Simply sign in via app.roomsketcher.com in your browser, open a project and access AI Renders.

How much does an AI Render cost?
Each AI Render costs 0.10 Credits, and they are deducted in groups of 10. When you create your first AI Render, 1 Credit is deducted from your account. This gives you 10 AI Renders.

Can I create more than one AI Render of the same view?
Yes. You can create several AI Renders from the same Live 3D view, 3D Photo, 3D Floor Plan or snapshot. AI-generated results can vary slightly, so trying more than one render can help you find the result you like best.

Do AI Renders replace 3D Photos and snapshots?
No. AI Renders are an additional way to present your project. You can still use 3D Photos and snapshots as before, and create AI Renders when you want a more photorealistic image.
