Room 01 note. Highest architecture drift on room 01. The column is moved and the soffit is changed, which you can see in the comparison. It also zoomed out slightly and rotated about 0.8°, so framing fails. No watermark, same resolution as the original.

Original room 01 next to the unaligned virtualstaging.ai output — Side by side as delivered: original (left) and virtualstaging.ai's first output (right), both scaled to the same height, not stretched or cropped; the yellow outline marks where the original frame lies in the output.
