Design Transfer on RunDiffusion

Design Transfer on RunDiffusion helps you apply a consistent style, design language, or visual direction across multiple architectural options. Upload a reference image and a target concept, then guide RunDiffusion to carry the look and feel from one design into another while preserving the core structure of each option.

Use it when you want to compare concepts without rebuilding the same visual direction from scratch. It is especially useful for option studies, client presentations, façade iterations, interior concepts, and fast visual alignment across a set of design explorations.

Apply a Design Language Across Options

Start with a design image that captures the style you want, then apply that direction to another concept or option. This lets you keep explorations visually consistent while testing different layouts, masses, façades, interiors, or presentation directions.

Use this workflow to transfer:

• Material language
• Façade rhythm
• Color palette
• Lighting style
• Presentation mood
• Interior design direction
• Exterior character
• Brand or studio visual language
• Concept family consistency

The goal is to make multiple options feel like they belong to the same design study while still preserving the differences between each option.

Watch the Video Tutorial

The video tutorial walks through the Design Transfer process step by step, from choosing a reference direction to applying that style across another design option.

Use it to follow along, compare prompt choices, and see how consistent design language can help speed up architectural exploration.

How to Use Design Transfer

1. Log in to RunDiffusion.

   

2. You are automatically redirected to RunDiffusion's Runnit Platform. Click Generate in the left sidebar.

   

3. Choose Image Edit.

   

4. Check to makes sure your tool is Nano Banana Pro. If it isn't click on the name of the tool at the bottom. This will allow you to select another tool if necessary.

   

   

5. Upload a reference image and an in house image of the style you want to use. To upload from your computer click upload, if you generated an image on RunDiffusion you can select it from your library.

   

6. Prompt the model to preserve the original layout, massing, proportions, or composition while transferring the design direction.

   Example Prompt: Transfer the ink style from the reference image to the photograph of an architecture building. Do not change the structure of the building only the style to match the ink reference image.

7. Click Run to render your image.

   

   

When to Use This Workflow

Design Transfer works best when you have one strong visual direction and want to apply it across other options quickly.

Use it for:

• Design option studies
• Client presentation sets
• Façade variations
• Interior concept alignment
• Material palette consistency
• Competition boards
• Studio critique packages
• Brand or project visual consistency
• Fast exploration across multiple massing options

Tips for Cleaner Design Transfers

Start with a strong reference image. The clearer the style source is, the easier it is to transfer that design language to another option.

For better outputs:

• Use a reference image with a clear material palette or visual direction.
• Tell the workflow exactly what to preserve in the target image.
• Separate structure from style in your prompt.
• Generate multiple versions to compare how strongly the style is applied.

Keep Architectural Explorations Consistent on RunDiffusion

Design Transfer gives you a faster way to apply a shared design language across options without manually rebuilding every visual direction. Use it to keep studies consistent, compare options clearly, and move faster from early exploration to polished presentation imagery.
