San Giusto — Two-Room Flat with Private Terrace

The 25 images in this listing start from photographs of the interiors and the terrace; in two shots a smudge covered part of the image. All 25 went through a generative image model (Google's Nano Banana family, used through the Higgsfield platform): 11 for light and colour only, 5 to remove objects, and 9 are simulations, which carry the label «AI · simulated» on the website. Personal and everyday objects were removed: a plate of fruit, remote controls, books, small objects on furniture and on the hob, a coffee pot, a kettle, a floor lamp, a picture hanging between the window and the French window and, in two photographs, a picture leaning on the floor and the baskets of toiletries on the bathroom windowsill, a bag, some of the towels in a niche, weights and a barbell.

In the simulations the model added or changed things that are not there or are different in reality: in 3 outdoor photographs the sky is redrawn with clouds different from those in the photograph, in one with sunset clouds; a white flower among the leaves of a plant; a bird on an awning box; in the bathroom a wicker basket with towels in place of a basket, glass jars in a niche and rolled towels on a cabinet; in the kitchen a basil plant, a bottle of oil and a jug; on the bedside tables a soap dispenser has become an amber glass bottle and a light-coloured book a leather-bound one; a vase in a niche has a pattern drawn by the model. Where the shots had the smudge, the model redrew a window and rebuilt the trunk and canopy of a tree. In one kitchen photograph it also straightened the wide-angle shot and put sunlight on the wall units.

The model also changed two fixed elements: the wooden door at the end of the corridor appears dark grey, and in the bathroom a white plate on the dark tiling, which is there in reality, is missing. Where an object was removed, what it hid was not photographed: the model rebuilt it, plausibly. Compared with the photographs, apart from these changes, the furniture, beds, kitchen, sanitaryware, tiling, doors, windows, niches, floor, terrace, railing and view are as photographed; in the 11 photographs retouched for light only nothing was added or removed.

Even where it changed only the light, the model recalculated the whole image: the fine grain of the surfaces is reconstructed, not photographed. Light and colour were corrected as in a normal photo retouch. The original unmodified photographs are available on request; a viewing remains the only reference for the actual condition of the property.
