AI Exterior Home Design: Give Your House a New Face

HomeGlow's Exterior design tool redesigns a photo of your house facade in a chosen style, so you can preview colours, siding and entryway looks before making changes. It creates concept images, not construction plans.

How it works.

  1. Add a photo of the front of your house

    Upload one clear photo. Straight-on and in daylight gives the cleanest result.

  2. Choose a facade style

    Pick from the styles in the tool, and add a line of your own in the prompt step if you want something specific.

  3. Review and refine

    Results usually arrive in under 2 minutes. On PRO you can describe a change in plain language to adjust them.

The header image and this pair start from the same ranch-style house at dusk. The roofline, garage door, driveway and trees stay; the finish, entry and planting change.

The facade styles in the tool.

There are fifteen to choose from, so you are not limited to one look. They include:

  • Modern, Scandinavian and industrial loft

    Clean lines, render and cladding, black frames.

  • Mediterranean, Spanish revival and stucco minimal

    Warm plaster finishes, arches and clay tones.

  • Colonial, Cape Cod and Tudor

    Traditional proportions and trim details.

  • Craftsman, farmhouse, ranch and coastal cottage

    Porches, board-and-batten and relaxed detail.

  • Brick classic and alpine

    Brickwork and timber, steeper pitches.

Colour: think in three parts.

Most facades read as a body colour, a trim colour and an accent, usually the door.

  • Body

    The siding or render. It carries the mood and sets what the others must work with.

  • Trim

    Window frames and fascia. Contrast here sharpens the house; matching it softens it.

  • Door

    The cheapest place to be bold. Describe a colour in the prompt step to see it.

For a good photo of your house.

  • Straight on

    Stand square to the front rather than at a steep angle.

  • Daylight or dusk

    Even light shows the surface. Strong shadows hide detail.

  • Clear the foreground

    Cars and bins in front of the house can end up in the result.

What it will not do.

  • Results are AI-generated concept images. They are not structurally accurate, to scale or code-checked, and they do not replace an architect, structural engineer or contractor.
  • Results do not check planning rules, building codes or HOA requirements. Confirm those separately.
  • It shows an impression of finishes. It is not accurate enough to hand a contractor as a specification.

Questions.

Can AI show my house in a different colour?

Yes. Choose a facade style or describe the colour you want in the prompt step, and the tool previews it on your photo.

What exterior colours are popular?

Warm whites, soft greys, deep greens and charcoal are common choices. Preview two or three on your own house, since light and surroundings change how a colour looks.

Does it work from a phone photo?

Yes. A phone photo taken straight on in good light works well.

Can I change the roof?

You can describe a roof change in the prompt step. How closely the result follows it varies, so check the output.

Can I preview landscaping too?

Planting often changes along with a facade, as the examples show. For a yard-focused redesign, the Landscape design tool is built for it.

Is it accurate enough for contractors?

No. It is a visual concept to help you decide on a direction, not a specification or a plan.
