# DecorAI AI Exterior Design URL: https://decorai.io/ai-exterior-design/ App: https://app.decorai.io/exterior-redesign ## Overview DecorAI AI Exterior Design lets you redesign the outside of your real house from a photo. Upload a photo and explore different paint colors, siding, roofing looks, doors, windows, materials, and exterior styles while keeping the existing house shape, windows, and doors recognizable. It is designed to help homeowners visualize exterior changes and compare options before spending money on paint, siding, roofing, or other exterior work. ## What is AI Exterior Design? AI exterior design uses AI to create visual redesign concepts for the outside of an existing house from a photo. DecorAI works from your actual house photo rather than creating a completely different property. It can show different exterior styles, paint colors, siding, roof looks, doors, windows, trim, masonry, and other visible exterior details while keeping the house recognizable. It is a visual design tool, not a structural planning or construction tool. ## What DecorAI can change DecorAI can redesign one exterior detail or several parts of the house at once, including: - Roof color and style looks - Siding and cladding - Windows and shutters - Front door and entry - Garage door - Stone and masonry - Paint and trim - Exterior colors and materials - Sky and lighting (14 sky types, 4 lighting options, 4 seasons) You can also use Magic Edit to make targeted changes after generating a design. ## How AI Exterior Design works 1. Upload a photo of your house, paste an image link, or use a previous design. 2. Choose an exterior style and preferences, including the house view and creativity level. 3. Add a short description if you want a specific paint color, siding look, door change, or other exterior detail. 4. Generate up to 4 exterior design options in about 30 seconds. 5. Compare the results, save favorites, and continue editing the design you prefer. ## How DecorAI keeps your house recognizable DecorAI uses the visible house in your photo as the basis for the redesign. The house shape, windows, and doors stay in place so the result remains recognizable as your property. AI uses visible rooflines, windows, and wall proportions as a guide, although some small details may change. The result is a visual preview of a possible exterior design, not a guarantee of how the finished construction will look. ## Exterior design styles DecorAI supports 67 exterior design styles. Styles include Modern, Contemporary, Modern Blend, International Style, Minimalist, Mediterranean, Modern Farmhouse, Farmhouse, French Country, Craftsman, Coastal, Tudor, and others. You can apply an exterior style to your own house photo and compare multiple looks from the same property. You can also choose No Style and let the AI improve the existing exterior image without applying a preset style. ## Supported house views DecorAI supports 5 house views: - Front - Side - Back - Corner - Street View Choose the view that matches the photo you are using. ## Creativity levels DecorAI provides 5 creativity levels. Lower levels keep the redesign closer to the original photo and your instructions. Higher levels give the AI more freedom to explore a different exterior look. ## Exterior design editing tools DecorAI provides several tools for making changes after generating an exterior design: - Magic Edit: adjust a selected area and describe the change you want. - Erase Object: remove cars, bins, or other unwanted objects from the image. - Change Sky: adjust the sky and lighting for different visual conditions. - Compare Looks: generate up to 4 exterior options in one run. - Watermark-Free Downloads: download clean exterior design images for sharing. - Upscaling up to 4x: download high-resolution versions of your designs. ## What photos work best? Use a clear photo that shows as much of the house as possible. A front, side, back, corner, or street-view photo can be used. Stand back and shoot straight-on rather than from an angle. Avoid tilting the camera up at the house or using extreme wide-angle, since both distort the roofline and window spacing in the result. Soft daylight helps exterior colors and materials appear clearly. Avoid extreme fisheye distortion. Moving cars, bins, and other large objects away from the house can provide a clearer view of the exterior. ## Can AI exterior design change the roof? Yes. DecorAI can preview different roof colors and styles on your house photo. You can also preview roofing material looks such as asphalt shingles, metal, and tile. These are visual previews. They are not structural roof plans or construction documents. ## Can AI exterior design change siding? Yes. DecorAI can show different siding and cladding looks on your existing house, including vinyl, fiber cement, board-and-batten, brick, stucco, stone, and similar exterior materials. ## Can AI change the front door or garage door? Yes. DecorAI can preview different front door, entry, and garage door styles and colors. These changes can significantly alter the visual appearance and curb appeal of a house. ## Can AI exterior design change windows and shutters? Yes. DecorAI can preview changes to visible window details, trim, shutters, and other window-adjacent exterior elements. The existing windows remain part of the recognizable house design. ## Can I see my house at different times of day? Yes. DecorAI supports different lighting conditions, including daylight, golden hour, night, and overcast. You can also change the sky and season to explore how the exterior looks under different conditions. ## Exterior Design vs Landscape Design AI Exterior Design focuses on the house itself, including: - Paint - Siding - Roof looks - Doors - Windows - Trim - Exterior materials AI Landscape Design focuses on the yard and outdoor layout, including planting and other landscape elements. Use Exterior Design for the building and Landscape Design for the yard. ## Can I show an AI exterior design to a contractor? Yes. Exterior designs can be used as visual references when discussing a possible new look with a contractor or family member. However, the generated image is not a construction drawing, material takeoff, or bid document. It should be used to discuss design direction rather than construction details. ## Does DecorAI replace an architect or check building codes? No. DecorAI does not replace an architect, contractor, engineer, or other professional responsible for construction and structural decisions. It does not check building codes, HOA rules, permits, or engineering requirements. Use the generated design to explore visual ideas, then confirm the actual project requirements with the appropriate professionals. ## Who can use AI Exterior Design? DecorAI AI Exterior Design can be useful for: - Homeowners planning exterior updates - Home builders exploring exterior concepts - Contractors discussing design directions with clients - Architects creating early visual concepts - Real estate agents and home stagers showing exterior potential - Property managers and developers exploring property updates - Remodelers and house flippers comparing exterior looks Images used for real estate or other professional purposes should be clearly identified as digitally altered when appropriate. ## Pricing DecorAI starts with 3 free designs on a 1-day trial. Paid plans start at $24 per month and include unlimited AI designs. AI video has separate limits (20 / month on the monthly plan). Half-yearly plans are $120 for 6 months, and yearly plans are $240. Paid plans also include commercial usage rights and private mode. ## What DecorAI does not do DecorAI creates visual exterior design concepts from photos. It does not create construction drawings, engineering plans, material takeoffs, or bid documents. Generated images are visualizations and should not be treated as measurements or guarantees that a particular roof, siding, door, material, or other product will work for the real property. DecorAI does not check building codes, HOA rules, permits, or engineering requirements. Confirm dimensions, product specifications, codes, HOA requirements, permits, and construction details with the appropriate professionals before starting exterior work. ## Related DecorAI tools - AI Landscape Design for yards, planting, paths, outdoor layouts, and other landscape changes: https://decorai.io/ai-landscape-design/ - AI Interior Design for redesigning indoor spaces: https://decorai.io/ai-interior-design/ - AI Room Design for redesigning a single indoor room.
