How to get the look, step by step
- 1Photograph your house decorations in daylight with the widest view you can frame — the RivAI app needs the whole space to work with.

- 5Add one statement piece: long trestle dining table.
- 6Finish with oxblood red (#5C1A1B) accents in textiles or decor, keeping them under 10% of the visual field.
