AI renovation planning, before the bid

See the renovation before you price it.

Upload the actual room, pick a direction, and generate a before-and-after on your real photo — with per-change cost ranges, your layout and structure preserved, and refinements you mark directly on the image. Decide what's worth bidding before you call a contractor.

Three steps

Photo. Direction. Done.

Keep the real room in view while you explore what could change.

  1. 01

    Upload the space

    Start with a kitchen, bath, living room, exterior, landscape, or any space where the existing layout matters.

  2. 02

    Choose the direction

    Pick warm modern, quiet luxury, restored character, rental-friendly, or describe a custom material palette.

  3. 03

    Mark what matters

    Draw around doors, windows, flooring, cabinets, exterior finishes, landscaping, or anything that should stay fixed.

Style direction

Match a style, or write your own.

Eighteen presets across modern, classic, lived-in, and practical. The room stays recognizable whichever direction you take.

  • Warm modern

    Natural oak, soft whites, honed stone, layered warm lighting.

  • Modern minimalist

    Restrained palette, clean lines, almost no clutter.

  • Organic modern

    Plaster, stone, plants — calm, organic, rounded forms.

  • Mid-century modern

    Walnut, tapered legs, retro silhouettes, atomic accents.

  • Scandinavian

    Light woods, white walls, simple lines, airy and bright.

  • Japandi

    Japan + Scandi: low contrast, hand-finished, calm.

  • Quiet luxury

    Restrained, durable, high-end materials done quietly.

  • Classic transitional

    Shaker cabinets, polished hardware, balanced symmetry.

  • Traditional

    Formal moldings, antique tones, refined upholstery.

  • Restored character

    Age-aware updates that keep original character intact.

  • Coastal classic

    Coastal brightness without nautical cliches.

  • Modern farmhouse

    White boards, mixed metals, modern lines + farm warmth.

  • Industrial

    Exposed brick, blackened steel, salvaged wood, raw edges.

  • Boho

    Layered textiles, plants, vintage finds, expressive color.

  • Warm collected

    Neutral layers, antique woods, aged brass, soft linen.

  • Collected eclectic

    Layered color, pattern, collected furniture, texture mix.

  • Rental-friendly

    Reversible upgrades, peel-and-stick, no construction.

  • Budget refresh

    High-impact finish swaps, no layout changes, low spend.

Source-aware

Keep the existing room in the loop.

RenoLuma is built for real rooms and home exteriors, not blank moodboards. It keeps the camera angle, geometry, visible structure, windows, door openings, rooflines, and source aspect ratio in view unless you explicitly ask for a change.

Add style, budget, location, and notes for what should stay fixed. Mark cabinets, flooring, fixtures, walls, openings, exterior finishes, or landscaping directly on the image so the renovation concept respects the actual space.

  • Designed around existing-room photos, not blank moodboards.
  • Your originals and results stay in your project history.
  • Keep layout, plumbing, windows, doors, or other constraints fixed.
  • AI cost ranges are planning aids, not contractor bids.

Exteriors

Test curb appeal on the same house.

See a stronger front elevation before you price the work. Keep the house recognizable while you explore siding, entry details, garage treatment, planting, lighting, and hardscape.

  • Compare the new facade against the same roofline, windows, garage, driveway, and approach.
  • Try material and landscape directions before spending time on bids.
  • Use cost ranges to decide which visible upgrades deserve a closer look.

Originals included

The before photo stays in view.

A renovation idea is only useful if you can tell what changed. Keep the original beside the result so the room still feels familiar while the design gets more ambitious.

Compare the fireplace, windows, furniture plan, storage, and lighting before you decide which direction is worth refining.

  • See whether the new look still belongs to the same room.
  • Compare layout, finishes, furniture, and lighting at a glance.
  • Refine the promising direction instead of starting over.

Image quality

Detail that stays sharp.

Stone veining, upholstery weave, brass highlights, and cabinet edges stay crisp instead of dissolving into soft, generic texture.

The image should hold up where quality usually falls apart: fabric, lighting, hardware, wood grain, and surface transitions.

How it compares

What renovation planning needs beyond a chatbot.

RenoLuma runs on the latest OpenAI image model — the same frontier behind ChatGPT — and adds the layer that turns a generated image into a renovation decision: AI cost analysis on every visible change, a multi-pass fidelity filter that keeps the room recognizable, and mask-based refinements you can iterate on. From $10, no subscription.
