Practical overview
When it fits
Use it when you want to generate an interior-design concept from a room image and prompt, or need a documented Cog-based API pipeline to adapt for that task.
Who it is for
- Interior designers exploring visual concepts from existing room photos.
- Developers building image-generation workflows that need a room-image and prompt API.
- Teams evaluating a self-served Cog and Docker pipeline for interior-design image generation.
Documented uses
- Re-render a room photo according to a detailed design prompt.
- Explore interior-design variations while using the source image as the generation reference.
- Adjust prompt influence, generation guidance, inference steps, and seed through documented API inputs.
Requirements & limits
The repository is public and the code base is identified as MIT licensed. Serving the model requires Cog and Docker. A Replicate demo is linked in the README.
- The reference image is a required API input alongside the text prompt.
- The pipeline uses segmentation and MLSD ControlNets in addition to the Realistic Vision V3.0 inpainting pipeline.
- The API exposes negative_prompt, num_inference_steps, guidance_scale, prompt_strength, and seed controls.
- The README identifies the code as MIT licensed and directs readers to separate license terms for the base and ControlNet models.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Run a prediction with Cog
Generate an interior-design image from a reference room image and a text prompt.
Before you start
- Cog and Docker installed
- A reference image; the repository example uses test_images/bedroom_3.jpg
- A descriptive prompt
Steps
Open the repository in an environment with Cog and Docker installed.
Run the documented
cog predictcommand with an image input and a prompt describing the desired room.Optionally provide documented inputs such as a negative prompt, inference steps, guidance scale, prompt strength, or seed.
Expected outcome
Cog runs a prediction using the supplied room image and prompt.
Guide limitations
- The README does not specify the prediction output format or provide performance guarantees.
- The base and ControlNet models have separate license terms from the MIT-licensed code.
Start the local Cog HTTP server
Serve the model as an API using the repository's documented Cog server command.
Before you start
- Cog and Docker installed
Steps
Open the repository in an environment with Cog and Docker installed.
Run
cog run -p 5000 python -m cog.server.http.
Expected outcome
The documented Cog HTTP server starts on port 5000 to serve the model as an API.
