House with garden «Le Vigne» — Duino

The 55 photographs in this listing are shots of the house, inside and out, and drone shots. All 55 went through a generative image model (Google's Nano Banana family, used through the Higgsfield platform): 20 only for light and colour; 8 were retouched without adding anything, 7 by removing objects and one by attenuating damp stains; 27 are simulations and on the website carry the label «AI · simulated». In the simulations the model added or invented things that are not there in reality: in 10 the lawn, which in the shots is dry, sparse or unkempt, partly bare soil and covered with dry leaves, is shown green and dense (in one drone shot these are the dry lawns and fields of the neighbourhood, with a warmer light); in 12 clouds were added to the sky, in one together with the green lawn; in 3 photos of the bedrooms a mattress, sheets and pillows were added on the bed base, which has no mattress, and in one the bare mattress is covered with a white sheet and a pillow; on the terrace, which is empty, a potted olive tree, a rosemary planter and pots of lavender and geraniums were added; in one room the view in the window, dark in the shot, is invented.

In one drone shot the model redrew the castle tower in the background, and in 4 photos it widened the frame, inventing what lies beyond the edges of the shot, in one including the neighbouring house in the background. Removed were: the electrical wires coming out of the ceiling where there is no light fitting, and bulbs hanging from the ceiling; a broom and a red object on the floor; small tables, a child's chair, an exercise bike, a toy car, a low cabinet, cardboard boxes and boxes, toys, bags and the objects in a room at the back; a garden hose on the path. Where an object was removed, what it hid was not photographed: the model reconstructed it, plausibly.

The model also attenuated defects that are there in reality: in 2 photos the damp stains at the base of the walls, and on the terrace the pale patches of the terracotta floor, which looks uniform. Otherwise, according to the comparison with the shots, house, roof, porch, walls, beams, doors, windows, radiators, furniture, room floors, path, hedges, trees, roads and coastline are as photographed. Even in the photos retouched only for light the model recalculated the whole image: the fine grain of surfaces is reconstructed, not photographed.

Light and colour were corrected as in normal photo retouching. The original unmodified photographs are available on request; a viewing remains the only reference for the actual condition of the property.
