AI archviz - 3 methods for exact furniture shape replication

This post showcases three ways to integrate objects of a specific geometric shape into an interior. The methods were tested on a [Ton-Merano](https://www.ton.eu/en/merano-armchair-a-modern-classic)\-styled chair. I combined an SDXL LoRA model (trained on juggernutXL) that I created for the chair to reinterpret the geometric characteristics of the chair with newer models (mostly Flux2 Klein9b) for a more realistic output.

**First image** – The entire interior image was created using the SDXL model + the chair LoRA. Then, various variations of the selected image were generated using a depth map (still with SDXL+LoRA). Finally, Flux 2 was used to enhance realism.

**Second image** – Only a close-up shot of the chair was created using the SDXL model + the chair LoRA. The visual was enhanced using the Flux 2 model, and then outpainting was done with the same model to generate the rest of the interior.

**Third image** – The initial image was created using Flux 2 with three reference images of the chair. The image was then processed with SDXL+LoRA for the chair and ControlNet Depth to improve chair geometry a bit. The image was passed back into Flux 2 (img2img) and refined to look more realistic.

There are still some inconsistency in proportions in all examples, so I think it could be further improved. I was more focused to test different approaches.

Inpainting and Photoshop were also used across all three methods where it was easier to make minor corrections. I achieved a good result fastest with the third version, but that might be because I am not an expert at creating a good enough LoRA model, so it took a lot of effort to get a good image in SDXL.

Which method seems best to you? Do you have any other ideas or advice on how to generate an image that faithfully represents the shape of a specific specific design element?
