# Renovation Preview: redesign a real space without breaking it

Visualize a renovation while respecting the existing structure, camera geometry, circulation, scale, and construction logic.

## Prompt

```text
Use case: realistic architectural renovation visualization
Input image: the attached image, the existing room, facade, or outdoor space
Design brief: {{design_brief}}
Elements that must remain: {{must_keep}}
Budget level: {{budget_level}}

Primary request: Renovate the space in the attached image according to {{design_brief}} at a {{budget_level}} budget while preserving {{must_keep}}.

Structural continuity: Preserve the camera viewpoint, room envelope, floor level, ceiling height, structural columns, window and door positions, and believable circulation unless the brief explicitly requests a feasible alteration.

Design execution: Update finishes, fixtures, furniture, storage, lighting, landscape, and styling as one coherent design. Use realistic dimensions, clearances, joins, edge details, mounting points, and material thickness.

Lighting and integration: Keep daylight direction consistent with the original openings. Add accurate contact shadows, reflections, bounced light, and material response. Match the original lens, exposure, and perspective.

Practicality: Favor changes plausible for the stated budget. Avoid blocking doors, windows, stairs, vents, or walkways. Do not imply engineering or code approval.

Constraints: Do not warp walls, create impossible furniture, change exterior views without reason, duplicate objects, or add illegible decorative text. Add no watermark.

Output: Return only one polished photorealistic renovation preview.
