Furnished two-bedroom flat with island kitchen in Via di Romagna

The photographs in this listing were taken with a smartphone in the flat on 12/01/2024; nine of them start from the colour-corrected and cropped version used for the listing until now, the other eight from the original shots. 16 of the 17 published photographs have been edited with a generative image model (the Nano Banana family by Google, used through the Higgsfield platform), for one purpose only: to remove everyday items left lying around and to give the rooms clearer, more even light. In one of the sixteen (the double bedroom with the black wall) nothing was removed and only the light changed; the seventeenth, the balcony, had only a light and colour correction, without generative artificial intelligence. The following were removed: books and magazines on the coffee tables, remote controls and, in one photo of the living room, the wooden bowl holding them (in the other two living-room photos the bowl is still there), a tissue box, wicker baskets, visible electrical cables, bags and a bag strap, clothes hangers, dish racks with glasses and jugs, kitchen roll with its holder, a white canister with its cable, a heat diffuser plate resting on the induction hob, soap bottles and dispensers, soap dishes, a glass and toothbrush cups, towels, bath mats, the floor-standing toilet-roll holder and the toilet brush, a black object on the floor under a bathroom cabinet, a cap and small items on a shelf, a small electrical device hanging on the towel radiator, a cloth in a basket, an iron, a basin and boxes on top of the dryer, an ironing board and a clothes airer; in one photo of the dining area a round chopping board leaning against the far kitchen wall also disappeared. All the furniture, the paintings and prints, the lamps, the plants, the wall shelving with its bottles, books and frames, the cushions, the rugs and the appliances on the kitchen worktops were deliberately left in place. Some items also remain because the model did not remove them, or because removing them made it invent something: a basket with a bag between the poufs, an object on a stool, some lamp cables and, in the background of one living-room photo, the kitchen roll, the dish rack and the soap on the kitchen worktop, which are removed in the kitchen photos. Where an item was removed, the part of the wall, floor or furniture it was hiding was not photographed: the model reconstructed it plausibly, for example the wall and floor of the laundry niche behind the ironing board and airer, the floor under the bath mats, the toilet lid behind the toilet-roll holder, the towel bar under the washbasin, a reflection on the glass of the induction hob and the part of the kitchen sink hidden by the dish rack. Small lettering (book titles, appliance brands) and small, distant objects on the shelves are also reconstructed only approximately. Apart from these reconstructed parts nothing else was changed: sizes, heights, openings, floors (herringbone parquet, terrazzo, chequered tiles), mosaics, windows and doors, systems, sanitary fittings, finishes, wall colours (including the black panelled wall, the blue doors and the pale blue ceilings) and the views from the windows are as photographed, and no defect has been reduced or hidden: the grey marks and dirt on the wall below the window of the bathroom with the bathtub are still as they are, and the scaffolding covered in sheeting on the building opposite, visible from the living-room and kitchen windows and from the balcony, has been left as it is. In the area of those marks, in the lamp of the same bathroom and in the laundry niche of the second bathroom the original photograph has been put back, with what was there: a candle on the window sill and the laundry baskets, which stay in the niche because, where the model removed them, it invented a tap, a socket and hoses. Light and colour were corrected as in any normal photo retouch. The starting photographs are available on request; a viewing remains the only reliable reference for the actual condition of the property.
