Is AI a competitor to interior designers?

We hear about AI daily,
but does it specifically affect your work?

As an interior designer or professional in this industry, you may have already considered AI technologies’ impact on interior design. (and ask yourself if this impact will happen at all) Short answer: Yes, the effect on the designer’s work will happen, or instead, it has already happened. This article will also find out if AI is your competitor.

Here are practical tips you can implement today

I give you a 100% guarantee that either your contractors or your direct competitors are already at least thinking about implementing AI and, at most, are already using it in their projects. By the way, we at Rendler Studio already use them entirely. After reading this article, you will also learn why it is not just another fancy trend that will pass in 6 months but a real revolution.

  •  Creating new interior images from your sample. For example, clients have shown you a picture of an Art Deco living room they like. Having such an image, Midjourney or Magnific AI can create interiors in similar styles that will help you understand what other elements to add to your design.

  • If your customers don’t know what they like (not a problem at all), in 5 minutes, you can generate 10 or 20 living rooms of different styles in Midjourney so that he/she can choose which direction you want to take.
  • Brainstorming. By uploading photos or 3D renderings of your interiors in chat GPT, you can discuss your design and choice of decorative elements to match the style. Have a real brainstorming session about your design together with ChatGPT or copilot. Ask specific questions about your design and choice of decorative elements to match the style.
  • More effective communication with customers. Microsoft copilot can easily compose a response to a customer email or analyze a written text.
  • Analyze your competitors’ websites and compare them with yours to understand what needs to be added to your site to encourage visitors to order your design. Ask AI questions to promote your design business.

“Copilots will be the big trend for the next decade”

I heard this phrase from an acquaintance who works at Google. Copilots are all sorts of AI assistants that can already be built into programs you have used for years. They can write text for you on a given topic, generate images, summarize large amounts of data, and even generate videos. They are your productivity improvement tool, not your competitor!

As promised, I will explain why this is more than just another fashion trend that has been in effect for six months. It’s easy to verify by a factor that can’t be faked. Look at how much investment all kinds of AI tools, device companies, and online services have received in recent years. No big business or foundation would spend billions of dollars on a technology that doesn’t change anything and is only needed to flood your newsfeed for six months, and they are spending billions.

Your competitor is still that famous designer or architect whose projects are often seen on Instagram! BUT …

But now both he/she and you have assistants in the form of AI and will win the designer who will not oppose the new AI services, and will take them into their arsenal, and will use them in their daily work, along with Revit, Photoshop, and other programs. Remember, AI is not your competitor, but it can remove some of the routine work.

These are just a few ways. We at Rendler Studio use AI in even more profound ways, but that will be a separate article. By the way, this article was also written with the help of Microsoft’s copilot, checked with Grammarly with AI features, and Magnific generated the pictures.
