Top-down layout image · your room photo, furnished · you measure, AI draws

AI Room Planner — plan the layout, then see it in your own room

Tell it the room size, the doors and windows and the furniture you have, get a top-down layout picture to think with, then see that layout in a photo of your actual room — same walls, window and door. It draws; you keep the tape measure.

What is an AI room planner, and what can it really plan?

An AI room planner helps you decide where the furniture goes — bed, sofa, desk, table — and shows you the result. On Kenerate AI it's two pictures: a top-down layout image drawn by Nano Banana 2.1 from your room size and furniture list, then a photo of your own room with that layout placed in it by Seedream 5.0 Pro, keeping the walls, window and door. Be clear on what it isn't: it makes images, not a measured plan — there's no drag-and-drop furniture or scale, so measure the room and check walkways yourself before you move or buy anything.

How to

How to use the AI room planner

Time needed
Steps
4 steps
  1. Step 1

    Measure the room

    Wall lengths, door and its swing, windows, radiators, sockets — and the size of each piece of furniture you're keeping.

  2. Step 2

    Draw the layout picture

    In /app/image with Nano Banana 2.1, describe the room and the furniture and ask for a clean top-down plan. Sign in free for 25 starter credits.

  3. Step 3

    Place it in your room photo

    Upload a photo of the room to Seedream 5.0 Pro and describe where each piece goes, plus “keep the same walls, window, door and camera angle”.

  4. Step 4

    Check before you move anything

    Compare with your measurements, keep a walkway of about 36 inches, and try a second layout if it feels tight.

Tips

Room plans that survive the tape measure

An image model draws what you describe. These habits keep the picture close to the room you actually have.

  • Measure first: wall lengths, where the door is and which way it swings, windows, radiators, sockets and any built-ins.

  • List the furniture you're keeping with its size — “sofa 84 × 36 in, desk 48 × 24 in” — and treat what the model draws as approximate.

  • One layout per prompt. Ask for “sofa facing the window” in one picture and “sofa with its back to the door” in the next, then compare.

  • Say where people walk: “clear path from the door to the window, nothing in the door swing”.

  • In your room photo, pin what can't move: “keep the same walls, window, door, radiator, floor and camera angle”.

  • Write the real measurements on the layout picture with Text and arrows in Edit Studio — they're local tools, so the numbers stay exactly as you typed them.

  • Check the result against the tape measure: an image model will happily fit a sofa that's a foot too long.

FAQ

AI Room Planner questions

What is an AI room planner?

A tool that helps you work out where furniture goes in a room and shows you the result. Measured planner apps let you drag furniture onto a to-scale plan; image-based planners like Kenerate AI draw the layout as a picture — a top-down plan from your description, or your own room photo with the furniture placed — so you can compare ideas quickly before measuring them properly.

Can AI plan my room layout from a photo?

It can show a layout in your photo, but it doesn't measure it. Upload the room to Seedream 5.0 Pro, say where each piece goes — “sofa on the long wall facing the window, desk under the window” — and add “keep the same walls, window, door and camera angle”. The model guesses sizes from the picture, so check every piece against the tape measure before you move or buy anything.

Is Kenerate a room planner app with drag-and-drop furniture?

No. Kenerate AI makes images: a layout picture and a furnished version of your room photo. It has no drag-and-drop furniture, no scale and no 3D model or CAD export. If you need exact dimensions, use a measured planner such as Planner 5D, RoomSketcher, Homestyler or SketchUp, and use Kenerate to see what the finished room could look like.

Is there a free AI room planner?

You can start free. A new Kenerate account gets 25 starter credits, and Qwen Image 3.0 is on the free plan — an edit with one room photo costs 9.9 credits. Nano Banana 2.1, the best pick for clean top-down layout pictures, costs 21 credits at 1K; Seedream 5.0 Pro, for placing the layout in your room photo, costs 13.5 at 1K or 1.5K. Downloads have no watermark.

What's the difference between an AI room planner and AI room redesign?

A room planner changes where things go — the bed moves to another wall, the desk goes under the window. A room redesign keeps the layout and changes the look: new sofa, colours, rug and style. For a restyle of the same layout, use the AI interior design generator; for an empty room you're listing for sale, use virtual staging.

How much space should I leave between furniture?

There's no single rule for homes, but the US 2010 ADA Standards give a useful benchmark: walking routes at least 36 inches wide, a 60-inch circle to turn a wheelchair, 30 by 48 inches of clear floor space next to things people need to reach, and doorways with 32 inches of clear width. They're written for public buildings and hotels, not private homes — but they're the numbers to plan to if anyone in the home uses a wheelchair or walker.

Can it show my room from a different angle?

Yes, as a picture. In Edit Studio, the Camera Angle tool re-shoots the scene from another viewpoint for 7.5 credits, so you can see a layout from the door instead of from the window. It invents what the original photo didn't show — the wall behind the camera, say — so treat that part as a guess.

Can I use photos of the furniture I'm thinking of buying?

Yes. Add the product photos as extra references next to your room photo and say where each goes — “put the sofa in image 2 on the left wall, the rug in image 3 under it”. Nano Banana 2.1 takes up to 14 images, Seedream 5.0 Pro up to 10. Scale is the weak point: the model sizes the sofa by eye, so measure the wall and the sofa before ordering.

Which rooms can I plan?

Living rooms, bedrooms, studio apartments, home offices, dining rooms, guest rooms and open-plan spaces all work the same way: describe the room, the door and window positions and the furniture, then compare two or three layouts. Kitchens and bathrooms have plumbing and fixed appliances, so they have their own pages with the relevant clearances.

In depth

AI Room Planner, explained

What works, what to avoid, and how to pick a model.

Can AI plan a room layout?

Yes for ideas, no for measurements. “AI room planner” covers two quite different kinds of tool, and it's worth knowing which one you need before you start:

  • Image-based planners (Kenerate AI, and most “room planner AI” sites): you describe the room or upload a photo, and a model draws the layout. Fast, cheap, good for comparing three ideas in ten minutes. Sizes are by eye, nothing is to scale, and there's no furniture you can drag.
  • Measured planner apps (Planner 5D, RoomSketcher, Homestyler, SketchUp and similar): you enter the walls and pick furniture with real dimensions, then move it around a to-scale plan or 3D view. Slower, but the numbers are real.
  • A good order: sketch two or three layouts as pictures, pick one, then check it with a tape measure or a measured app before anything moves.
