LOOK CLOSER

Check your own product images

Look at the armrests, seat contours, cushions and feet. A convincing room alone does not show whether every product detail was preserved.

  1. 1 Choose a clear product reference.
  2. 2 Select your model and scene settings.
  3. 3 Compare the result and reference side by side.

04 / YOUR CHECKLIST

What matters in furniture images

Five questions to help you choose a workflow that fits.

01 Product identity

Compare viewpoint, silhouette, cushions, handles, frames and leg geometry with the original. A convincing room is not proof that the furniture stayed unchanged.

02 Materials and variants

Inspect wood grain, upholstery texture and colour appearance. Test representative references for each important material or variant.

03 Room perspective

Check floor contact, shadows and alignment between the product and room views. Verify known dimensions separately.

04 Catalog workflow

Look at reusable settings, batch processing, review steps and export requirements. Confirm the features included in the plan you would use.

05 Cost and intended use

Compare your expected output and editing needs against current provider plans. Check the provider terms and permissions for your intended use.
