Visualizing a home renovation or interior design idea has traditionally required advanced design skills, professional software, or hours of manual editing. Copilot Image Studio changes that experience by allowing anyone to transform ideas into stunning visuals using simple natural language prompts.

Powered by AI, Copilot Image Studio enables you to generate and enhance realistic images by simply describing what you want. Whether you’re redesigning a living room, modernizing a kitchen, creating a luxurious bathroom, refreshing an outdoor patio, or completely reimagining a home’s exterior, Copilot Image Studio can produce high-quality design concepts within seconds.

Instead of manually adjusting colors, furniture, materials, lighting, or landscaping, you simply describe your vision in plain language. The AI interprets your prompt and generates visually compelling design variations, making it easier than ever to explore different styles, layouts, and creative possibilities.

In this blog, you’ll discover how to use Copilot Image Studio to transform houses, living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, outdoor spaces, and landscapes with carefully crafted text prompts. You’ll also learn prompt-writing techniques that help you generate more realistic, professional, and inspiring design results.

Getting Started with Image Studio in Copilot

To get started with Copilot Image Studio, first open a sample project or any project you would like to enhance using AI. Once the project is open, switch to the 3D View, as Image Studio uses the current 3D perspective as the source for generating new design concepts.

In this example, we’ll transform a house exterior into a modern, luxurious design. Begin by opening a project that displays the front or exterior view of the house, then adjust the 3D view until you have the desired angle.

Home Design Copilot Image Studio gives you precise control over how closely AI-generated images follow your original design through the Design Preservation feature. This setting determines how much of the source image or project layout is retained during image generation, allowing you to choose between preserving the existing design or giving the AI more creative freedom.

The Design Preservation drop-down menu offers four options: Strict, Relaxed, Redesign, and None. Each option applies a different level of design preservation, making it suitable for different design scenarios. Whether you want to maintain the exact layout of your project, introduce subtle improvements, completely reimagine the design, or generate a result without preserving the original structure, these options provide the flexibility to achieve your desired outcome.

In this article, we’ll explore each Design Preservation option in detail, explain how it affects AI image generation, and demonstrate when to use each setting to achieve the best results for your home design projects.

Step-by-Step Guide to Apply Design Preservation Options

To apply these options, first open a sample project that you want to use for rendering with reference images. Once the project is open, navigate to the 3D View and adjust the view to capture the area you want to transform.

The Light and Dark Theme feature in Home Design application allows you to customize the appearance of the interface according to your preference and working environment. By providing two different visual modes, the application gives you more flexibility to create a comfortable and personalized workspace while designing your projects. Whether you prefer a bright and clean interface or a darker workspace with reduced visual brightness, you can easily choose the theme that best suits your workflow.

The Light Theme provides a clear and traditional interface with brighter backgrounds, making it easier to view menus, tools, and design elements in well-lit environments. On the other hand, the Dark Theme offers a darker interface that can provide a more comfortable viewing experience, especially during extended design sessions or in low-light environments. It helps reduce screen brightness and creates a modern look while working on your home design projects.

With the ability to switch between Light and Dark Themes, Home Design gives you greater control over your overall application experience. This customization option helps improve usability, enhances visual comfort, and allows you to work more efficiently by selecting the interface style that matches your personal preference and working conditions.

How to Switch Between Light and Dark Themes

To change the application theme, first launch the application and open an existing project or a sample project.

Opening an existing or sample project in application

Once the project is loaded, navigate to the Preferences option from the Edit menu.

Accessing application preferences settings

In the Preferences window, select the User Interface option.

Accessing User Interface settings to customize the application theme

Under the Active Scheme dropdown menu, you can choose your preferred theme and switch between the available Light and Dark theme options according to your preference.

The Light Default theme provides a bright and clean interface designed for comfortable use in well-lit environments. It uses lighter backgrounds and clear visual elements, making menus, toolbars, and design options easy to view and navigate. This theme offers a familiar workspace experience and is suitable for users who prefer a traditional interface while working on their home design projects.

Previewing the application interface with Light Default theme

The Dark Default theme provides a modern interface with darker backgrounds and a balanced contrast between different application elements. It is designed to create a more comfortable viewing experience, especially during extended working sessions or in low-light environments. The darker interface helps reduce visual brightness while maintaining clear visibility of tools, menus, and design components, allowing you to focus more on your project.

Previewing the application interface with Dark Default theme

The Use System Settings option allows the Home Design application to automatically follow the theme preference selected in your operating system. When this option is enabled, the application theme changes dynamically based on your system appearance settings.

For example, if your operating system is set to Light Mode, the application will automatically use the Light theme. Similarly, if your system is switched to Dark Mode, the application will adapt and display the Dark theme. This option provides a seamless experience by keeping the application appearance synchronized with your overall system preferences, eliminating the need to manually change the theme settings.

Selecting Use System Settings to automatically apply the system theme

Conclusion

The Light and Dark Theme options in Home Design application provide greater flexibility and control over your overall design experience. By allowing you to customize the interface appearance according to your preference and working environment, these themes help create a more comfortable and personalized workspace.

Whether you prefer the bright and clear layout of the Light Default theme or the modern and comfortable appearance of the Dark Default theme, you can easily select the option that best fits your workflow.
