Why start your home design with AI 

Traditional design takes weeks of back-and-forth. Starting with AI concepts speeds up the early stage, so you explore more options and reduce rework before the first brick is laid.

  • Instant concepts from a prompt or an uploaded photo
  • Compare multiple exterior and style variations on one screen
  • Refine styles, materials, and high-level look in plain language
  • Save and share versions with family, a builder, or stakeholders

For permit-ready drawings and structural specifics, always consult a licensed professional.

What Users Say 

  • 1

    Amanda L.

    "We were stuck between modern and farmhouse. The generator gave us clear visuals for both, and we aligned on a direction in one evening."

  • 2

    Brian W.

    "For spec homes, I spin up several exterior/style options, shortlist the best two, and take them into pricing. It saves days at the concept stage."

  • 3

    Sophia R.

    "I start with a couple of references and a rough brief. The tool delivers solid concept visuals I can refine instead of sketching from scratch."

  • 4

    Justin C.

    "Sharing side-by-side versions with my partner made decisions painless — colors, siding, even porch details. We moved to the builder with confidence."

What you can design 

  • Exterior styles

    See your home as a modern villa, farmhouse, cottage, Mediterranean, contemporary, or classic build, rendered photoreal.
  • Materials & colour

    Swap siding, cladding, brick, stone, render, and colour schemes and compare in seconds.
  • From your own photo

    Upload a photo of your current house and explore how a new facade or style would look on it.

When people use it 

  • Planning a new build

    Explore directions before hiring an architect, so the brief you hand over is visual, not vague.
  • Previewing a renovation

    See a facade refresh on your existing home before spending on construction.
  • Spec homes & real estate

    Generate several exterior and style options, shortlist the best, and take them into pricing.

How it works 

  • 1. Describe your home or upload a photo.

    Give the style, materials, and rough idea — or upload a photo of your current house.
  • 2. Generate several directions.

    Review photorealistic concept images.
  • 3. Refine by chatting.

    Swap materials, adjust colour, or try another style.
  • 4. Save and share.

    Share the versions you like with your family or builder.

How to write a good house-design prompt

Be specific: house type such as a two-storey modern villa or rustic cottage, materials such as wood, stone, and glass, and setting such as coastal, mountain, or suburban. The more detail, the closer the result — then refine from there.

House design or broader architecture?

Use this tool for residential home and exterior directions. For commercial buildings and broader concept work, use the AI Architecture Generator. For 2D layouts, use the AI Floor Plan Generator.
