Furniture Density Control: Stage Every Room Your Way
Control exactly how much furniture appears in your staged photos — from airy minimalism to richly layered spaces.
Why Furniture Amount Matters
Not every room needs the same level of staging. A buyer browsing a cozy studio apartment wants to see how the space breathes. A luxury living room demands layered seating and curated decor. A hallway just needs a hint of warmth.
That's why Stagedly gives you a simple slider to dial in the perfect furniture density for every photo you stage.
No more one-size-fits-all results. No more cluttered kitchens or empty-feeling bedrooms. You're in control.
How It Works
When you upload a room photo and select the AI Staging service, you'll see the Furniture Amount slider. Drag it anywhere from 0% to 100% to tell the AI exactly how dense or minimal you want the staging to be.
The AI interprets your choice and places furniture accordingly — while always keeping walkways clear and the room functional.

The Five Staging Levels
Choose the perfect density for your room
Ultra-Minimal
0–10%"A couple of anchor pieces, maximum breathing room."
Perfect for:
- Showcasing architectural features
- Small spaces where less is more
- Modern/minimalist listings
- Rooms where you want the structure to shine
Example: A single statement chair, a slim console table, and nothing else.
Light Staging
11–30%"Just a few key pieces with plenty of open space."
Perfect for:
- Studios and compact apartments
- Hallways, sunrooms, and transitional spaces
- Buyers who want to imagine their own furniture
- Clean, airy photo aesthetics
Example: A sofa and coffee table in a living room, but no side chairs, no rug, no wall art.
Balanced Staging
31–60%"A moderate number of pieces with a breathable layout."
Perfect for:
- Most residential listings
- MLS-ready photos that feel 'move-in ready'
- Rooms that need to feel functional but not crowded
- Our most popular setting — the sweet spot
Example: Sofa, coffee table, accent chair, rug, and a few accessories.
Full Staging
61–85%"A rich set of pieces while keeping walkways open."
Perfect for:
- Luxury listings that need to impress
- Large rooms that would feel empty otherwise
- Lifestyle-focused marketing (social media, brochures)
- Creating an aspirational 'dream home' feel
Example: Layered seating, side tables, floor lamps, art, plants, and curated shelf decor.
Maximal Staging
86–100%"Layered seating and decor — but still uncluttered with clear paths."
Perfect for:
- High-end properties with expansive rooms
- Editorial or magazine-style photography
- Buyers who want to see the full lifestyle potential
- Rooms designed for entertaining
Example: Multiple seating zones, styled bookshelves, statement lighting, and designer accessories.
Benefits of Furniture Density Control
Tailored to the room
A bathroom doesn't need the same staging as a living room. Dial it down or up.
Matches buyer expectations
Luxury buyers want to see opulence. Minimalist buyers want to see space.
Faster approvals
Get the look you want on the first try — no back-and-forth revisions.
Consistent across listings
Set the same density for all photos in a property for a cohesive look.
Works with any style
Whether you choose Scandinavian or Luxury, the density slider adapts.
Pro Tips
General Guidelines
- Start at 50% if you're unsure — it's the most versatile setting
- Go lower for small spaces — studios, hallways, and bathrooms work best at 20–40%
Room Size Matters
- Go higher for large rooms — expansive living rooms and master suites can handle 70–90%
- Match the listing's price point — luxury listings benefit from fuller staging
Style Considerations
- Minimalist and Scandinavian styles often look best at lower densities
- Traditional and Bohemian styles shine with more pieces
Buyer Psychology
