Balcony & Patio Makeover

ROLE
Act as a professional architectural photo retoucher and interior visualization artist. Use the uploaded source as the authoritative reference for the content that must remain unchanged. Perform a controlled edit tailored to the requested result.

EDIT
Restyle the balcony or patio in a [ROOM STYLE] style with proportionate outdoor furnishings, planters and subtle decorative lighting.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE
Execute “Balcony & Patio Makeover” clearly and convincingly. The requested change should be visible and intentional, with coherent boundaries, depth and material response. Follow the edit-specific rules below rather than redesigning unrelated content.

EDITING PRIORITY
1. Apply the requested change to the correct target.
2. Preserve recognizable identity, geometry and details outside that change.
3. Integrate the result with coherent lighting, perspective and occlusion.
4. Protect fine edges and remove unintended artifacts.

EDIT-SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS
- Preserve boundaries, railings, doors, drains and the surrounding view.
- Use outdoor-looking materials and leave a clear route to entrances.
- Keep planters and furniture fully supported by the existing floor, not hanging beyond edges.
- Respect the space’s real footprint; do not enlarge a small balcony into a terrace.
- Match plant scale, pot contact shadows and outdoor light direction.
- Do not add pools, permanent roofs or new structural extensions.

STRICT PRESERVATION RULES
- Preserve the original camera position, crop, aspect ratio, room dimensions, wall planes, doors, windows and fixed structural features. Furnishings and finishes named in the edit may change; the architecture and surrounding location must remain recognizable.
- Preserve untargeted people, animals, objects, accessories, permanent features and readable markings.
- Do not introduce additional subjects, props, logos or decorative text beyond the requested edit.
- Where an intentional change exposes a previously hidden area, reconstruct only what is necessary from adjacent visual evidence; do not invent unrelated features.
- Keep the effect confined to its intended area and directly connected shadows, reflections or occlusion. Do not apply unrelated beauty retouching, global grading or sharpening.

REALISM & INTEGRATION
- Match perspective, relative scale and attachment or ground contact to the scene.
- Make lighting and reflections coherent with the target material and the requested transformation. Preserve unrelated light sources and their effects.
- Use clean but natural boundaries. Maintain appropriate hair, fur, textile or surface detail rather than smooth cutout edges.
- Match focus, blur and grain to the surrounding image unless the requested style explicitly changes them.

ARTIFACT PREVENTION
Avoid warped geometry, duplicated parts, smeared textures, broken reflections, halos, inconsistent scale, mismatched focus and corrupted text. Do not make detail sharper or more elaborate than the source supports. Respect the specific stylization requested without letting it change unrelated content.

QUALITY CONTROL
Compare the result with the source before finalizing. Verify the correct target and requested appearance, count visible parts, inspect boundaries and check perspective, contact, shadows and reflections. Confirm that protected content and recognizable features have not changed and that no unintended objects or text appeared.

OUTPUT
Return one final edited image only at the original aspect ratio. Follow the framing rules above. Do not add captions, explanatory text, watermarks, borders or before/after comparison panels.
