# A new backdrop. The same familiar room.

Explore paint or wallpaper on a room photo. Compare an accent wall with an all-over treatment before choosing samples.

**Audience:** For visual exploration from your own references

## How it works

Wall color and wallpaper, from your own image.

1. **Bring your references** — Upload a room photo and an optional wallpaper or paint sample. Identify the wall or walls to change.
2. **Describe the direction** — Describe the color, pattern, scale, and finish. Say what should stay, including furniture, trim, and ceiling.
3. **Review the concept** — Inspect wall boundaries, pattern repeats, and corners. Test a physical sample in the room before making a final choice.

## Example prompt

```
Change only the broad wall directly behind the headboard to refined muted sage wallpaper with a small-scale delicate botanical leaf pattern, tonal not colorful. Keep side walls white, preserve the bed, headboard, linens, bedside tables, window, floor, light and camera precisely. The pattern follows the wall plane correctly.
```

## From reference to concept.

A generated source, its edited result, and a closer look at the same result. Use the comparison above to inspect what changed.

- **Original wall** — The generated source image used as the edit reference.
- **Wallpaper concept** — The result of the task-specific edit, using that source image.
- **The wallpaper pattern** — A tightly framed detail from this result, shown at three times the scale of the full view.

## Wall color and wallpaper questions

### What should I upload for wall color and wallpaper?

Upload a room photo and an optional wallpaper or paint sample. Identify the wall or walls to change.

### Can I use my own wallpaper sample?

Yes. Upload it alongside the room photo and identify the target wall. Pattern scale, repeats, and color may vary, so use the result for direction rather than ordering quantities.

### How should I check the result?

Inspect wall boundaries, pattern repeats, and corners. Test a physical sample in the room before making a final choice.

### Can I refine the concept in the same conversation?

Yes. Tell Bob which parts to change and which to retain. Refer back to your original images and review each new concept for unintended changes.

Paint color and wallpaper scale are approximate. The image does not determine coverage, roll quantities, pattern alignment, or the condition of the underlying wall.
