Home Design App: Bare Bones to a Finished Entry
This is the moment a home design app earns its place: the walls are up, the floor is plywood, and every decision is still open. You can see the finished space before a single finish is bought.


What stayed the same
The arched double door with its fanlight is the same door, now painted white. The curved staircase keeps its dark handrail, its white balusters and its landing window. The ceiling height and the position of the right hand wall have not moved.
What changed
The plywood subfloor became wide whitewashed oak. The walls went pale blue with white panel moulding, and a mural climbs the wall beside the stairs. A gilt palm chandelier hangs from the ceiling. A skirted round table with a blue and white vase of orchids sits at the centre with two rattan stools, and a green console with a lamp and a scalloped mirror fills the right wall.
Style notes
- Palette: pale blue walls, white trim, whitewashed oak, green and coral accents
- A round table in a square hall gives the space a centre and a path around it
- Panel moulding on a plain wall costs paint and battens. It does most of the work here
- Decide the floor first. Everything else in the frame sits on it
These designs are AI visualisations of one space, with the walls, windows and layout held constant. That is what Recasa does with a photo of your own space. Furniture and finishes are visualisations, not photographs of a finished build.
