Decorous: AI Home Makeovers is an AI app for interior design, room makeovers, and property showcases, developed by Strange Mesa and available for download on the App Store. It primarily uses AI technology to let users quickly generate virtual staging or redesign effects for a room from a single photo.
In terms of use, the app is suitable for a variety of scenarios: real estate agents can virtually stage photos of vacant listings so buyers can see a fully furnished space; homeowners or renters can explore room makeover inspiration, such as changing styles, adjusting wall colors, or trying out exterior or backyard designs; designers can also use it to quickly generate concepts for client reference.
Main capabilities include:
- Virtual Staging: Choose a room type and style (such as Modern Farmhouse, Scandinavian, Mid Century, etc.) to generate a fully furnished room effect in seconds, while keeping the walls, windows, floors, and camera angle unchanged, ensuring the photo still shows the real home.
- Declutter: Remove furniture, boxes, and clutter from occupied rooms to make the space clearer.
- "Virtually staged" label: Add a "Virtually staged" or "Digitally edited" label to saved or shared images to meet MLS rule requirements.
- Redesign any room: Supports living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, offices, and more, offering 19 styles, allowing you to renovate while preserving the layout or completely transform it from scratch.
- Exterior, backyard, and walls: Try new siding, doors, and landscaping, turn an empty yard into a garden, or test wall colors without changing anything else.
- Text instruction edits: Enter prompts such as "add a large plant," "remove the curtains," or "make the sofa green" to change only the specified content.
- Pro features: Unlock unlimited staging and redesigns, 2K listing exports, all modes and styles, and a design advice chat.
In terms of how to use it, users simply take or upload a room photo, select the room type and style, and generate the result. The app also provides a before-and-after comparison slider and a one-tap "try another style" feature. Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the period, and can be managed or canceled in the App Store account settings.
Applicable scenarios include preparing property listings, exploring interior design inspiration, previewing before renovation, and trying out everyday home makeovers.
