Can AI help you save up to 10% on the cost of your home's interior and minimize the time it takes to finish a job by up to 80%?

As companies use AI tools in sales, design, and execution, they may be able to save up to 10% on the cost of home interiors and cut the time it takes to go from design to manufacturing by 20%.

Artificial intelligence might slash the cost of house interiors by up to 10% as developers and proptech companies utilize data-driven tools to make design, procurement, and execution more efficient. Experts say that the same technique can cut project timeframes by at least 80% from the planning stage to real manufacturing.

AI-powered visualization tools help purchasers digitally equip empty residences and try out different layouts, colors, and decorations before they buy. They added that these technologies assist cut down on inefficiencies that usually raise costs and lengthen project timeframes by reducing the need for modifications, material waste, and errors on site.

AI can cut the time it takes to finish an interior design project by at least 20%.

Swetank Jain, CEO of Bonito Designs, says that AI may be used in the interiors market in two main ways: for sales and for the main design process.

"AI can make a designer's work more productive and quicker by five to six times. He claimed that designers will focus more and more on understanding their clients' wants and goals, while AI takes care of the hard work on the back end, such as 3D modeling, first-layer layouts, technical details, and documentation. He told Hindustan Times Real Estate that as design software and manufacturing production systems become more connected, the effects could even reach execution timelines.

Amit Agarwal, CEO and co-founder of NoBroker, says that AI-assisted visualization and requirement mapping can free up about 40% of design bandwidth. "Customers can see how finishes will look in real life and make decisions almost 20% faster." He remarked, "That gives designers more room and lowers the cost of the whole project."

The company thinks that roughly 4% of the savings come from faster and better design work, while another 3% can be saved by being more careful with materials and logistics. AI tools can recommend layout variants that do the same thing but use fewer boards and laminates. This cuts down on waste caused by design flaws or not enough training. AI can keep track of stock and only plan production when it's needed in factories. This helps down the costs of storage and warehouses.

AI-based quality checks can help cut down on the number of people needed for big design reviews. AI solutions that talk to customers 24/7 can help you get new clients for less money, saving you about 2%. When you add in faster project completion timeframes and less need for monitoring, the total savings might be 8–10%. Agarwal added, "The whole cost is being passed on to homebuyers."

AI can also put together and look at big volumes of data to offer design suggestions that are more relevant, according to architects. For example, it can look at local geographic and demographic trends to figure out which types of designs are most popular in certain small markets. It may take finances into account and automatically offer material libraries that fit within certain limits. "AI can choose materials based on what works with that price point and design language. This is something that takes a lot of manual work right now," Jain said.

Architects say that immersive technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are further transforming the customer experience. "In the future, clients may almost walk through their intended apartments before they were built and really feel the space. We use 3D renders and drawings today. Jain remarked, "It could be a fully immersive experience tomorrow."
