How AI Can Help Your Interior Design Business

June 19, 2023

The Interior Design industry changes constantly but there are definitely pockets of this profession that need to catch up. AI is here to stay and embracing it will only solidify the need for humans. Many of us are already using AI and we don’t even realize it! We’re going to talk about all the ways you can incorporate it into your business so you can spend more time designing.

What is AI?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science that deals with the creation of intelligent agents, which are systems that can reason, learn, and act autonomously.

AI has been around for decades, but it’s only in recent years that it has become powerful enough to be used in real-world applications.

Should WE be worried about what AI will do to the interior design industry?

No! AI is a valuable tool that can support interior designers in their work, but it’s important to remember that the magic of design lies in the hands of talented humans. We’re designers, so let’s design ways for these tools to make our jobs easier and create the best experience for our clients. One thing that can’t be replicated is the connection we make with our clients and colleagues and using AI in the other areas of the business gives us more time to do that!
