The Challenge
Interior design visualization has traditionally been an expensive and time-consuming process. Homeowners, property developers, and real estate agents who want to see how a space could look with different styles, furniture, and finishes typically face two options: hire a professional interior designer or try to imagine the result themselves.
Professional renderings can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars per room and take days or weeks to produce. For property listings, renovation planning, or simple curiosity about what a room could look like, this cost and timeline are prohibitive. Most people end up making design decisions based on guesswork rather than informed visualization.
SleekDigital saw an opportunity to apply AI and machine learning to democratise interior design visualization, making it instant, affordable, and accessible to anyone with a smartphone camera.
High Cost Barrier
Professional interior design renderings cost hundreds to thousands of dollars per room, putting quality visualization out of reach for most homeowners and small businesses.
Slow Turnaround
Traditional design visualization takes days or weeks. This lag makes it impractical for quick decisions like staging a property listing or exploring renovation options.
Limited Style Exploration
With traditional methods, each design iteration requires additional time and cost. Exploring multiple styles for the same room becomes impractical, forcing clients to commit early.
Accessibility Gap
Interior design services are predominantly available to high-income clients and commercial projects, leaving the majority of homeowners without professional design guidance.
The Solution
SleekRender is an AI-powered tool that takes a photo of any room and generates multiple styled interior design visualizations in seconds. Users can explore different aesthetics, furniture arrangements, and colour schemes without hiring a designer or waiting for manual renderings.
Photo-to-Design Generation
Users upload a photo of their room, and the AI model analyses the spatial layout, lighting, and existing elements. Within seconds, it generates a redesigned version of the same space in the selected style, while preserving the room's structural characteristics.
Multiple Design Styles
SleekRender supports a range of interior design aesthetics including Scandinavian, Industrial, Modern Minimalist, Japanese Zen, Mid-Century Modern, and more. Users can generate the same room in multiple styles to compare before committing to a direction.
ML-Powered Spatial Understanding
The machine learning model understands room geometry, natural light sources, and spatial proportions. This ensures generated designs respect the physical constraints of the actual space rather than producing generic outputs disconnected from the room's reality.
Instant Results
From photo upload to styled visualization in seconds, not days. The speed enables a conversational design process where users can iterate rapidly, trying different styles and adjustments until they find a look they love.
Tech Stack
Next.js
Powers the user-facing web application with server-side rendering for fast initial page loads, image optimization for the gallery of generated designs, and API routes for communicating with the ML pipeline.
AI / Machine Learning
Custom-trained models for spatial understanding and style transfer. The ML pipeline handles room segmentation, style application, and output refinement to produce photorealistic results.
Image Generation
Advanced image generation pipeline that produces high-resolution interior design visualizations while maintaining spatial consistency with the original room photo and photorealistic material rendering.
Results
Instant Visualization
AI-generated design visualizations are produced in seconds, replacing a process that traditionally takes days or weeks with professional designers.
Democratised Design
Professional-quality interior design visualization is now accessible to anyone, not just those with the budget for traditional design services.
Photorealistic Output
The ML model produces high-fidelity visualizations that respect room geometry, lighting conditions, and material textures for realistic results.
AI-First Approach
Demonstrates SleekDigital's capability in building AI-powered products that solve real-world problems at the intersection of technology and creative industries.
Use Cases
Homeowners
Explore renovation ideas by visualizing your existing rooms in different styles before committing to a renovation contractor or purchasing furniture.
Property Agents
Stage empty or outdated properties digitally to help potential buyers envision the space, improving listing appeal and reducing time on market.
Interior Designers
Generate rapid concept visualizations for client presentations, speeding up the initial design exploration phase and improving client communication.
How We Built It
Research
Studied existing interior design workflows and AI image generation capabilities to define a product vision that bridges the gap between professional design and consumer accessibility.
ML Pipeline
Built and trained the machine learning pipeline for room segmentation, spatial understanding, and style transfer. Iterated on model architecture to achieve photorealistic quality.
Product Development
Designed and built the Next.js web application with an intuitive upload-and-generate flow, style selection interface, and gallery for viewing and comparing generated designs.
Refinement
Tested with real rooms across different sizes, lighting conditions, and styles. Continuously improved model quality based on output analysis and user feedback from early adopters.
