Furniture & Decor Prompts: Custom Design
Design custom furniture pieces and home decor items with Nano Banana. Visualize unique concepts for manufacturing or inspiration.

Furniture design is about form, function, and material. Nano Banana allows you to prototype furniture concepts instantly, testing different fabrics, woods, and shapes without building a physical model.
Understanding Object Design
To design a specific piece of furniture, you need to describe its Construction (how it's made) and its Style (the era or movement). If you just say "chair," you get a generic chair. If you say "bentwood chair," you get a specific manufacturing technique.
VELVET ARMCHAIR
Let's start with the foundation example from the Product Visualization overview. Here is the complete, fully detailed prompt to generate the "VELVET ARMCHAIR".
[Optional Base Image] Design a luxury accent chair.
Design:
- **Style**: Art Deco inspired
- **Shape**: Scalloped shell back (curved)
- **Upholstery**: Deep emerald green velvet
- **Legs**: Tapered brushed brass legs
- **Details**: Vertical channel tufting on the backrest
Presentation:
- **Background**: Solid soft pink studio background (color block style)
- **Lighting**: Softbox lighting from top left
- **Shadows**: Sharp contact shadows on the floor
- **Angle**: 3/4 front view

Why This Works
The "Channel Tufting": Specific upholstery terms like "tufting," "piping," or "stitching" add realism. They tell the AI how the fabric should fold and catch the light.
The "Brushed Brass": Metals need finish definitions. "Gold" can look yellow and fake. "Brushed brass" or "polished chrome" gives the AI a specific material reference for reflections.
The "Color Block" Background: Using a contrasting background color (Pink vs. Green) is a common trick in high-end furniture catalogs. It makes the product pop and feels curated.
Common Mistakes
Note:
Leg Count: AI notoriously struggles with chair legs, sometimes giving 3 or 5. Asking for a "3/4 view" usually helps hide the back legs or makes the perspective clearer for the model.
Variations on "VELVET ARMCHAIR"
Change the material and form for different styles.
The Parametric Bookshelf
Modern and architectural.
Design a parametric wooden bookshelf.
- **Construction**: Layered CNC-cut plywood slices
- **Shape**: Organic, flowing wave pattern covering a wall
- **Wood**: Light birch plywood with visible end grain
- **Content**: Shelves partially filled with colorful books and plants
- **Vibe**: Architectural, futuristic, organic

What Changed: We focused on "CNC-cut" and "layered slices" to define the manufacturing method.
The Sculptural Pendant Light
Statement-making and artistic.
Design a sculptural pendant light fixture.
- **Shape**: Organic, blob-like form with asymmetrical curves
- **Material**: Matte white ceramic with geometric cut-outs
- **Interior**: Warm brass hardware visible through openings
- **Style**: Contemporary, artistic, biomorphic
- **Presentation**: Hanging against soft grey wall background
- **Lighting**: Interior glow showing through the ceramic cut-outs
- **Cord**: Minimalist black fabric cord

What Changed: We used "organic curves" and "geometric cut-outs" to balance sculptural form with functional design elements.
Expanding Your Catalog
Design decor and modular systems.
The Modular Sofa (Functionality)
Flexible seating.
Design a maximalist modular sectional sofa.
- **Configuration**: Sprawling L-shaped sectional with separate pouf ottoman and side table module
- **Upholstery**: Mixed luxury textiles - deep emerald velvet on seat with burnt orange boucle backrest cushions, soft grey linen on the chaise extension
- **Form**: Curvaceous sculptural silhouette with exaggerated, cloud-like proportions and rounded barrel-arm details
- **Accents**: Hand-stitched brass nail head trim running along the base, exposed wooden block feet in dark walnut with gold leaf detailing
- **Cushioning**: Dramatically oversized cushions with deep button tufting and piping in contrasting cream thread
- **Setting**: Opulent living room with jewel-toned walls, layered with a Persian rug, ornate mirror backdrop, and moody gallery lighting
- **Styling**: Scattered with velvet throw pillows in clashing complementary colors (teal, mustard, wine), faux fur draped casually, vintage brass side table nearby
- **Mood**: Audacious luxury, bohemian grandeur, unapologetically maximalist

The Ceramic Vase (Decor)
Artistic objects.
Design a handmade ceramic vase.
- **Shape**: Asymmetrical organic form
- **Glaze**: Reactive blue glaze with dripping effect
- **Texture**: Hand-thrown clay ridges
- **Context**: Sitting on a wooden shelf with dried flowers
- **Lighting**: Rim light highlighting the glaze gloss
