The sofa stays where it is. [Try Wall Flower](https://sloosh.ai/spaces/wall-flower) [Wall Flower](https://sloosh.ai/spaces/wall-flower) on Sloosh is an AI paint and wallpaper visualizer. It changes the surfaces in a photo of your room: walls, an accent wall, the floor, the ceiling, cabinets, a worktop or a backsplash. Show it what you're considering with a photo of the sample, such as a shade card, a wallpaper roll or a tile. The sofa, the lamps and the clutter on the shelf stay where they are, so the only thing you're judging is the new finish. ## What goes in, what comes out | Wall Flower | | | --- | --- | | You upload | A photo of the room, plus up to four photos of finish samples | | You choose | The surfaces to change (walls, accent wall, floor, ceiling, cabinets, worktop, backsplash) and the light (daylight, evening, as photographed) | | You get | The same room with those surfaces changed and the furniture left in place | | Cost | Shown on the Generate button before you run it | ## Picture this A tile showroom on a Saturday afternoon. Forty samples on the wall, and a couple holding two of them up to the light. She has a photo of their kitchen on her phone. He says the grey one will look cold. She says it won't. The salesman takes her phone, uploads the photo, and photographs the grey sample on the counter. A few minutes later they're both looking at their own kitchen floor in grey. She was right. ## How do I change the wall colour in a photo? ## Four steps 1. **Open Wall Flower and upload a photo of the room.** 2. **Add photos of the finishes you want to try, up to four** a shade card, a wallpaper roll or catalogue page, a tile or a floor sample, each shot flat from above. 3. **Pick the surfaces** walls, an accent wall, the floor, the ceiling, cabinets, a worktop or a backsplash. Then pick the light: daylight, evening, as photographed, or more than one. 4. **Check the cost on the Generate button, then run it.** ## How do I get a great result? **Shoot in daylight with the bulbs off.** Yellow ceiling bulbs tint every wall. Daylight gives the AI a neutral base, so the shade you picked is the shade you see. **Photograph samples flat and square.** Put the tile or wallpaper on a table near a window and shoot straight down. A sample shot at an angle comes back stretched. **Show the whole surface.** If half the floor is out of frame, the AI can only tile half the floor. Step back until the edges of the wall or floor are in shot. **Change one surface per run.** Paint first, then floor. Two changes at once make it harder to tell which one you like. **Compare on the same screen.** Put the original and the result side by side. Colours on a phone screen are never the colour of a tin, so treat this as a direction and test a real patch before you paint. ## How is this different from other room Spaces? | Space | Changes | Keeps | | --- | --- | --- | | Wall Flower | The surfaces you pick: walls, floor, ceiling, cabinets, worktop, backsplash | Furniture, decor, layout | | Room Restyle | Furniture, textiles and decor to a style you describe | Walls, windows, camera angle | | Product in Room | One piece of furniture or decor, swapped for your product | Everything else | | Room Service | Furniture, decor and colours, as a sheet of concepts | Walls, windows, doors | Use Wall Flower when the furniture is staying and only the finish is in question. ## Who uses it? - **Paint dealers:** show a customer three shade cards on the photo of her own hall, at the counter. - **Tile and flooring showrooms:** let a couple see the sample on their kitchen floor before they order boxes. - **Wallpaper sellers:** turn a catalogue page into "this is your bedroom wall" for an online enquiry. - **Interior designers:** get a sign-off on the accent wall before the painter arrives. - **Realtors and landlords:** show a buyer what the dated pink bedroom looks like in off-white. ## When is Sloosh the wrong tool? - **Final colour approval.** Screens shift colour. Buy a sample pot and paint a patch on the real wall before you order litres. - **Quantities and coverage.** Wall Flower shows a look. It won't tell you how many boxes or litres you need. - **Texture finishes that depend on light.** Metallic, stucco and high-gloss finishes change with every hour of the day. A photo shows one moment. ## Can I run it from Claude or ChatGPT? Yes, on every Sloosh plan. Claude, Codex, Cursor and VS Code can run it; ChatGPT can too, in a Business or Enterprise/Edu workspace. Connect the [Sloosh MCP server](https://sloosh.ai/docs/mcp), set a daily limit, attach the room photo and the sample, and send: **For Claude or ChatGPT** ```text Run the Sloosh Space Wall Flower on this living room photo with this deep teal shade card as the finish.
