Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based visualisation tools are increasingly being used in interior design to generate interior images, explore alternative design concepts, communicate spatial ideas, and support client participation during the design process. Traditional communication methods, including two-dimensional drawings, material samples, and conventional three-dimensional renderings, may not always enable clients to understand the proposed design or visualise how different elements will appear in a completed space. AI-assisted visualisation may help address this challenge by producing rapid visual alternatives and enabling designers and clients to discuss preferences more concretely.This study aims to examine the perceived impact of AI-based visualisation tools on client communication and decision-making in interior design. A quantitative, cross-sectional survey design is proposed, targeting interior design students, practising interior designers, and individuals who have participated in an interior design or renovation project. The questionnaire will investigate perceived clarity of communication, understanding of design proposals, confidence in decision-making, satisfaction with visual alternatives, trust in AI-generated images, and concerns regarding accuracy and feasibility. The collected data will be analysed using descriptive statistics and exploratory comparisons where appropriate.The study is intended to explore whether AI-based visualisation is perceived as a useful communication aid and to identify the limitations that may influence its responsible application in professional practice. Since the study relies on self-reported responses, the findings will represent participants’ perceptions rather than objective proof of improved client outcomes. The research may contribute to understanding how AI can support client-centred interior design while preserving professional judgement, technical accuracy, and transparent communication.
