How to scan other room types with IKEA Kreativ
If you want to scan a room that doesn’t fall into typical categories like living room, bedroom, dining room, or office, you can still achieve accurate results using a photographic wide-angle scan.
Learn more about how to effectively scan other room types:
-
When prompted to select a room to scan, choose the 'Other Room Types' option to continue.
Keep these best practices in mind:
-
Ensure the floor is visible: Make sure part of the floor is shown in your photos and scans. This helps with accurate room measurements.
-
Step back from walls and objects: Capture more of the room by standing farther away from walls and furniture. Ideally, scan from a corner or an open area.
-
Only move when prompted.
Start in an open area:
-
Start the scanning process at a spot where you can easily step aside to capture additional angles if needed.
-
Avoid clutter: Remove any objects that might obstruct the view of the room.
-
Change your viewing angle or rearrange the objects to achieve a clear and accurate scan.
-
Ensure good lighting: Bright, well-lit areas help capture room details more accurately.
By following these guidelines during your wide-angle photographic scan, you can successfully capture the layout of spaces that don't fit standard categories, allowing you to design unique rooms with precision and confidence.
