Unique Properties

The use of artificial intelligence in interior design offers unique properties that can significantly enrich the design process. With its ability to generate numerous design variations, it helps enrich the decision-making process and expand the boundaries of creative thinking. Furthermore, the use of AI in interior design fosters innovation and experimentation, helping to create unique and impressive spaces that meet modern client requirements and expectations.

Production Technology

First, we needed to define the overall stylistic direction of the restaurant: materials, textures, colors, lighting choices, and brightness. Then, once the general concept was assembled, we needed to set the parameters for Midjorney. After generating the images, I began the selection process. AI creates 4 images to work with: refine a specific image or choose variations based on it. While exploring different options, I selected the ones that were more compositionally interesting and suitable, and proceeded to work with them. By creating chains of images, one can achieve truly good results.

Design Challenge

The difficulty lies in how accurately you can generate a prompt. Sometimes, the neural network doesn't understand what you want from it, and you have to deal with finding the right words. Additionally, these images cannot replace visualization in the traditional sense because you cannot create different frames for one space, they always change.

Research

Research Background: There is a need to improve the convenience of the interior design process and enhance the efficiency of design and modification.
Methodology: I utilized artificial intelligence for interior design based on the concept we discussed with the client according to their requirements.
Results: With the use of artificial intelligence, designers can quickly obtain conceptual visualizations of interiors, enabling efficient creation and modification of designs.
Conclusions: AI proves to be highly effective when utilized properly. Such versatile design saves time and allows reliance on images generated by neural networks. Increased design efficiency is achieved by eliminating the need for manual modeling and visualization during the concept approval stage.

Inspiration

For the design project of a Japanese restaurant, it was decided to use AI-generated images at the conceptual stage since the client wanted to see as many variations as possible. The materials and overall mood of the space were planned out initially, as AI needed to be given specific parameters, and it performed excellently in its task. In my opinion, it effectively created the overall ambiance of the premises and developed interesting layout zones.

Project Duration

The project was completed in 2023 in Bangkok, Thailand.

Operation Flow

With this wonderful tool, it's possible to quickly generate project concepts and then refine them in specialized programs. In the initial stages, AI can greatly assist with certain decisions. Of course, AI can't design for you, but it can help generate many variations in a short amount of time.
