> Now I know that this tool is just a “starting point” for using as ideas, but I have seen way more fabulous (and sane) kitchen designs en mass on houzz, dezeen, basically any online blog. Somehow I doubt those blogs have the same floor plan as my house or any easy way to filter for things that would fit in my own kitchen. Don't underestimate the power of seeing a design in your exact kitchen/space. What looks good in one layout isn't guaranteed to look good in another. > All this to say, I work with architects professionally, and I do not see this as something that will cause their field concern in the near to mid term. These programs cannot make drawings with structural suggestions, floor plans for the layout they produce, or anything else that a person pays an architect for. Ok but that's not the point, at least it's not for me. I'm not trying to replace architects, I'm trying to figure out what I want so I can take it to someone who knows better and say "I want this". They can kick back anything that's not going to work structurally but I kind of doubt this is going to be a big problem as, not to be an ass but, I have a brain. I know where the cabinets can go (the same place my existing ones are) along with my sink/oven/dishwasher. What I'm looking for is designs/colors/etc and how that would look in my kitchen, I'm not designing a kitchen/house from an empty plot of land. As with all Stable Diffusion (and most AI stuff, see CoPilot) the goal (or at least my goal) isn't to replace the designers/architects/programmers/etc but to automate away the parts that waste a bunch of time. For CoPilot that's boilerplate or similar code blocks, for this it's letting me see designs and (hopefully) tweak or re-gen parts I don't like until I get it close enough to take it to an expert. I fully understand the "kitchen remodel" tool doesn't exist today but it's not hard to imagine what it would look like with image input, in/out-painting regions, and a nice GUI wrapped around a Stable Diffusion core. |
