Your smartphone is enough. Here is how to get a stunning result.
No need to be a photographer to get a stunning result with Shopia. The quality of your result depends above all on the starting photo. Here is how to take a good room photo for Shopia in 3 simple steps.
Stand against one wall and shoot the opposite wall, smartphone at chest height. Step back as far as you can to capture the whole room.
Turn your phone to landscape mode. You capture more width, more detail, and Shopia gets more context to work with.
Open curtains and shutters, take the photo during the day, avoid backlighting. Shopia relies on visible light for a photorealistic result.
This is tip number one. Stand against one wall and shoot the opposite wall, smartphone at chest height. Then step back as far as you can to capture the most space possible. This way, Shopia sees the whole room and can redesign it coherently.
On top of that, remember to turn your phone to landscape format (paysage mode). It matters because you capture more width and more detail, so Shopia gets more context to work with. As Les Numériques explains, landscape framing is ideal for indoor spaces.
Light makes all the difference. Concretely, open your curtains, take the photo during the day, and above all do not stand facing a window (backlighting darkens everything). Indeed, Shopia analyzes visible light to recreate a photorealistic atmosphere. In other words, the more natural your lighting, the more faithful the result.
