Can I use screenshots from furniture websites like IKEA or Wayfair?

Yes. Product images from any website work well. White or light product backgrounds clean up especially easily.

How do I make the lamp the right size in the canvas?

Look up the lamp's actual height and compare it to known reference heights in your room photo, like a door at 80 inches, and resize accordingly.

Can I preview a pendant light hanging from the ceiling?

Yes. Place the pendant cutout at ceiling height in your room photo and adjust its position and scale to judge whether it fits above your table or island.

What if the product image has a complex background?

Canvi's AI handles most product backgrounds. Solid and light backgrounds produce the cleanest results, though it works on most images.

Can I try multiple lamps in the same canvas to compare?

Yes. Place several lamp options side by side in the same room canvas and pick the one that works best.

No More Lamp Returns

Photograph a lamp or light fixture in the store or from a product page and see how it looks in your actual room before you buy it. Get the scale and style right the first time.

Why people use it

Eliminate the frustration of returning large or fragile lighting fixtures
Test whether a floor lamp scale works next to your sofa without buying first
Compare two lamp styles against the same corner of your room
See whether a table lamp overpowers or disappears on your actual side table
Mix and match lamp styles to see what pairs well with your existing decor

How it works

Capture the lamp: Photograph it in a store, take a screenshot from a product page, or download a product image. Any clear photo with a distinguishable background works.
Remove the background: Upload to Canvi and the background is stripped automatically. You get just the lamp, clean and ready to place.
Drop it into your room: Use a photo of the actual corner, table, or area where the lamp will live as your canvas background. Drag the lamp cutout in.
Check size and style: Resize the lamp to approximate real proportions, then evaluate the style fit, scale, and visual balance before buying.

Use cases

Floor lamp shopping: Visualize a tall arc lamp or tripod floor lamp next to your existing seating before ordering something you may need to return.
Bedside table lamp scale: See whether a lamp will overwhelm or get lost on your nightstand relative to your bed frame and wall height.
Pendant and chandelier placement: Photograph or screenshot a pendant and preview it hanging over your dining table or kitchen island to judge scale.
Mixing lamp styles: Place multiple different lamp cutouts side by side in your room to see which one harmonizes best with your furniture.

Tips

Use the longest side of a familiar object like a door as a scale reference when sizing your lamp on the canvas
Compare a warm-shade lamp and a white-shade lamp against the same room photo to understand the mood difference
Test floor lamps behind and beside seating pieces to see which placement improves the room
Save the product URL alongside your exported canvas image so you can find it again easily when ready to purchase
Check the lamp against both your daytime room photo and an evening shot for a fuller picture
