AI in the method

AI in interior architecture

From day one, the studio has tried every new artificial-intelligence tool that touches interior architecture — often the very week it comes out. We test them all, keep the best, and put them to work on one thing only: your project.

That practice has given us a real head start on our profession. It is simple to measure: shorter timelines, more directions explored, images earlier — and decisions that remain, from start to finish, human.

What AI changes for your project

Exploring used to be expensive in time; not any more. Where a project once rested on two or three directions, yours tries ten: ten layouts, ten atmospheres, ten ways of living within the same walls. A variant that took days of drawing now exists in a few hours — and you see it, instead of imagining it.

That saved time does not leave the project, it returns to it: more back-and-forth with you, images earlier in the calendar, shorter design timelines. You decide better, because you have seen more.

Pioneers, and proud of it

These tools change every month; we follow them every week — it is a discipline of the studio, on a par with drawing. Every newcomer passes through our hands the moment it comes out: tried on real projects, pushed to its limits, compared with what it claims to replace. What improves the project enters the method; the rest goes. And project after project, this becomes a skill very few studios possess: knowing exactly what to ask of these tools — and what never to entrust to them.

This curiosity is not a flourish, it is a conviction: the studios that draw best today are already the ones that have made these tools their own. While the profession debates, we practise. That head start is cultivated every week — and it is your project that benefits.

Taste cannot be computed

It must also be said where artificial intelligence is bad: it has no taste. It does not understand what is said between the lines, what you confide without saying it; it cannot choose, between two beautiful things, the one that is truly you. It proposes a great deal, and is often wrong — with great confidence.

Which is why, at Mira Ceti, it never has the last word. The listening, the final drawing, the weighing of materials and proportions stay in the studio; and the decision belongs to you. AI widens the field; taste makes the project.

Ten directions explored, one kept: yours.

Concretely, in your project

You will never see the tool — you will see its effects. Layouts compared from the first drawing, atmospheres tried side by side, and images of your apartment as it will be arriving earlier than they ever have. At every step, AI cleared the ground; the studio drew. That matters most where every square metre has to do two jobs.

And nothing generated enters the works file as it is: everything that becomes real is redrawn, checked and measured in the studio. The promise fits in one sentence — a project explored more widely, decided faster, and closer to who you are.

Your questions

Does AI do the project instead of you?

No — and it would be quite incapable of it. It multiplies directions and shortens timelines; the listening, the final drawing and the choices remain human. The project is decided between you and the studio.

What do we gain, concretely?

Time and breadth: more variants explored from the first drawing, images earlier, shorter design timelines. You see more, sooner — and you decide better.

Will the project feel less personal?

Quite the opposite. Ten directions explored instead of two means more chances of finding the one that is truly you. And everything that enters the works file is redrawn and approved in the studio — nothing generic survives it.

Which tools do you use?

All the ones that matter — and the list changes every month. We test them as they appear, on real projects, and keep only those that improve yours. It is studio work in its own right, and we hold to it.

What if we dislike a proposal?

Then it will have cost a few hours, not a few weeks — which is precisely the point. Discarding a direction quickly is part of the method: every “no” brings the project closer to you.
