Say "No!" to AI Imagery - It Is Ruining Tropical Interior Design Inspiration
In this episode, we dive into the growing and unfortunate flood of AI-generated imagery in the world of tropical interiors and why they are rarely the paradises they appear to be. From unnatural lighting, nonsensical placements, unrealistic proportions, incomplete detailing, and even impossible materials, they are simply out of touch with reality. They lack cultural authenticity. AI imagery too many times gives a false sense of what’s achievable in real life and that is not a good thing!
We’ll talk about:
- How AI interiors often ignore practical constraints like lighting, furniture sizes, room layouts and how they ignore important detailing in textures and patterns.
- Why relying too much on AI images can stifle your creativity instead of sparking it.
- The most common issues found in AI imagery of interior spaces.
- Alternative sources where you can find real imagery for tropical inspiration instead of Pinterest which is now full of AI imagery.
Whether you’re a homeowner with a design project in mind and you're struggling with figuring out what's possible and what's not, or you're someone who is just dreaming of how to bring the beauty of palm leaves and the ocean into a space, this episode will help you cut through the artificial illusions and find inspiration which is rooted in reality.
