AI Inpainting for Architecture: Edit One Part of a Render, Keep the Rest

The most common client comment isn't “redo it” — it's “love it, but…”. A different floor. One more window. That chair, gone. Regenerating the whole image throws away everything they already approved. Inpainting fixes exactly this: you mask a region, describe what goes there, and the AI rebuilds only that region, matched to the scene's light and perspective.

How to inpaint a render

1. Upload the image to Inpainting — an AI render, a CGI still, even a photo.
2. Paint the mask over what should change. Be generous at the edges; the AI blends the boundary.
3. Describe the replacement. “Wide-plank oak flooring”, “floor-to-ceiling window with black frame”, “nothing — empty wall”.
4. Generate and compare. Everything outside the mask stays pixel-identical, which is exactly what an approving client needs to see.

What it's used for in practice

• Revision rounds: material and furniture changes without touching the approved composition.
• Cleanup: removing artefacts, clutter or an awkward object from an otherwise perfect frame.
• Options: the same room with three different floors — one render plus two masks.

Tips for seamless results

• Name materials and colours explicitly; “nicer floor” gives the AI nothing to hold onto.
• One change per pass beats one giant mask — chain small edits.
• Keep lighting words consistent with the scene (“warm evening light” in a daylight render will fight the image).
