From Blank Canvas to Dream Living Room: A Virtual Staging Story

Published on September 9, 2025

An empty room is a space of pure potential, but it can also be intimidating. Where do you start? What style will work best? At AInteriors, we believe the best way to find out is to see it for yourself. We took one empty living room and used our AI to instantly stage it in three completely different styles.

The "Before": Our Blank Canvas

Every great design story starts with a beginning. Here is the empty room we used for our experiment: clean, full of light, and ready for a transformation. Huge potential that must be squeezed.

Makeover #1: Modern & Minimalist

For our first design, we wanted something clean, sleek, and sophisticated. We gave the AI a simple prompt: "A modern living room with a minimalist aesthetic. Furnish it with a sleek, low-profile grey sofa, a simple black metal coffee table, and a few green plants. Ensure there is plenty of natural light."

The result is a space that feels both stylish and uncluttered. The AI understood the core principles of modern design—clean lines, a neutral color palette, and a focus on form and function.

Makeover #2: The Industrial Vibe

Next, we went for a completely different feel—something with more texture and character. Our prompt was: "An industrial style living room. The main wall should be exposed red brick. Include a worn leather sofa, a coffee table made from reclaimed wood and dark metal, and vintage-style Edison bulb light fixtures."

Instantly, the room's personality changed. The AI introduced rugged textures like brick and leather, creating a warm, urban loft atmosphere that feels both historic and contemporary.

Makeover #3: Scandinavian Serenity

For our final version, we aimed for comfort, coziness, and simplicity—the heart of Scandinavian design. The prompt was: "A bright and airy Scandinavian living room. Use light wood furniture, a comfortable neutral-colored sofa with cozy throw blankets, and simple, functional decor. Add a few small plants."

This design emphasizes comfort and light. The AI chose light woods and soft textiles to create a space that feels welcoming and peaceful—a perfect embodiment of the Danish concept of *hygge*.
