Why details get lost

When the AI generates a lifestyle scene, it sometimes adjusts product details like colour, leg style, handle shape, or finish to match the scene’s overall aesthetic. If your product has distinctive features, you need to explicitly tell the AI to preserve them.

How to protect product details

Call out the exact details that must not change. Be as specific as possible: name the colour, the material, the type of legs, the handle style — anything that makes your product distinctive.

Example

✅ Good prompt: create a lifestyle image, add the white bedside table, keep the blue and chrome finished legs exactly the same. In a modern bedroom scene

This prompt explicitly identifies the key details: the table is white, the legs are blue and chrome-finished. The AI knows exactly what to preserve.

❌ Bad prompt: create a lifestyle image, add the bedside table to a modern bedroom scene

This prompt doesn’t mention any specific details. The AI might change the colour of the legs, alter the finish, or modify other distinctive features of the product.

Details you should call out

  • Colour and finish (e.g. “matte black”, “brushed brass”, “gloss white”)

  • Leg style and material (e.g. “tapered oak legs”, “hairpin metal legs”)

  • Handle/knob style (e.g. “round brass knobs”, “recessed handles”)

  • Upholstery texture (e.g. “tufted velvet”, “smooth leather”)

  • Any unique design features (e.g. “keep the wardrobe doors open”, “preserve the curved backrest”)
