Summary
Allow a second image input — a style / reference image — alongside the source render, so users can point at a specific building facade or material treatment instead of describing it in words.
Motivation
Paying customers ask for ability to more clearly specify design input for a given scene source image used in AI Render.
Proposed direction
Rather than a bare "second image" slot, fold this into the existing style selection:
- The user picks a style, as today.
- One style option is "reference image" (naming TBD), which reveals an image input.
- The style prompt then refers to that second image — "match the facade treatment in image 2" — instead of hardcoding a look.
This keeps the UI at one concept ("what style?") rather than adding an unexplained second upload box, and reuses the mental model users already have.
Notes
- Future / exploratory. No committed timeline.
- Needs a check on which of the current image models accept multiple image inputs and how they reference them; the prompt phrasing is likely model-specific.
- This relates to the request for single file picker via re-using / adapting the existing shared asset component, i forget which issue that is
