Yes, you can! If your room photo already has furniture, clutter, or old decor, we’ve got you covered with our clutter removal option. Just select the option for item removal when uploading your photo. Our AI will do its best to clear out the existing items and give you an empty canvas, then proceed to virtually stage the room with new furniture. Keep in mind that the cleaner the original photo, the easier it is for the AI to work its magic – but don’t sweat it, we built the service to handle lived-in rooms too.

• Use good lighting: Photos taken in bright, natural light usually turn out best. Dark or blurry shots can make it harder for the AI to place furniture realistically.
• Shoot a wide angle: Try to capture as much of the room as possible from a normal standing height. Extremely angled shots or partial room photos might lead to odd furniture placement.
• Clear the clutter (if you can): If you know a certain item looks out of place (like a stray chair or personal items), remove it beforehand or use our clutter removal. This gives a cleaner result.
• Match the style to the space: For example, if you’re staging a bedroom photo, choose a style and furniture layout that fits a bedroom (and not a living room setup). The AI is smart, but giving it the right context helps.
• Don’t expect structural changes: Virtual staging will add furniture and decor, but it won’t knock down that wall or raise the ceiling. (It’s for furniture and decor only, not architectural remodels.)

Definitely! You’re not limited to one look. Feel free to stage the same room photo multiple times with different styles to see various designs. For instance, you could do one version in a sleek modern style and another in a warm rustic style and compare which you like more. It’s quick and easy to re-run the process with a new style selection. Many users enjoy experimenting with a couple of styles – it’s like trying on outfits for your room, and you get to pick the one you love most.

Yes – in fact, that’s the goal! Our AI produces photorealistic results, meaning the added furniture and decor look like they were actually there when the photo was taken. We’ve trained the system to match lighting and perspective, so couches cast shadows, and tables have the right reflections, etc. Most people won’t be able to tell the image is virtually staged unless they look very closely or compare before/after. Of course, the realism also depends on your original photo quality (higher quality photos yield better results). Overall, you can expect the final staged photo to look impressively real, often fooling even keen eyes at first glance.

Not at all! Staging.com runs entirely through your web browser – no special software or Photoshop required. Our interface is user-friendly and guides you through the steps, so if you can upload a photo and click a few buttons, you’re all set. You also don’t need any interior design experience; our AI takes care of the designing for you. We built the service so that anyone (yes, even if you’re “not tech-savvy”) can easily virtually stage a room. Just hop on the website, and you can get started right away with nothing extra to download.
