# Best Practices

> How to get cleaner inputs, better prompts, and stronger Renview outputs.

# Best Practices

Good outputs start with a good source image. Use these guidelines to get more consistent results from Renview.

## Start with a strong photo

* Use a sharp, well-lit image with minimal motion blur
* Keep the room fully visible in frame when possible
* Avoid heavy filters, screenshots, or low-resolution uploads
* Tidy obvious clutter if you want the AI to focus on layout and styling instead of cleanup

## Choose the best angle

* Shoot from a doorway, corner, or wide vantage point to show the full room
* Keep the camera roughly chest height for natural-looking perspective
* Avoid extreme tilt unless you want a dramatic result
* For outdoor spaces, include the main surfaces and boundaries you want redesigned

## Pick the right editing mode

### Use full image generation when:

* You want to redesign the entire room
* You are exploring multiple style directions quickly
* The current furniture and decor are not important to preserve

### Use the Draw tool when:

* You only want to change one area of the image
* You want to keep most of the room untouched
* You need precise edits such as replacing a sofa, table area, or wall section

### Use reference images when:

* You want to match a specific look or inspiration image
* A client, collaborator, or mood board already defines the target aesthetic
* Color palette, materials, or furniture style matter more than the exact preset

## Write better prompts

* Describe the result you want, not just a list of objects
* Include style, mood, materials, and lighting where helpful
* Keep prompts specific and readable instead of stuffing in keywords
* If you are unsure, start simple and iterate from the first result

Example prompt:

```text theme={null}
Warm modern living room with light oak flooring, soft beige sofa, textured rug, black accents, and natural afternoon light.
```

## Use style and reference intentionally

* Preset styles are the fastest way to explore broad directions
* Reference images help when visual consistency matters
* Custom styles are best when you want a repeatable branded or signature look

## Iterate in small steps

* Change one major variable at a time when comparing outputs
* Save strong generations to your library so you can reuse them as references later
* If the composition is right but one area is off, switch to the Draw tool instead of regenerating the whole image

<Tip>
  If the result is close but not quite right, keep the same source image and refine the prompt or edit only the problem area. Small iterations usually outperform starting over.
