Art Deco mansion restoration: before & after

AI-generated concept, not a real renovation. Every image on this page, before and after, was made with AI. There is no real property, no building work and no cost behind them: they are ideas to look at, nothing more.

An abandoned 1920s Art Deco mansion in pale limestone, reimagined five times: at the front door, in the entrance hall with its curved marble staircase, in the music room around a grand piano, in the walnut library and in the marble bathroom. Limestone, bronze, checkerboard marble, walnut and brass: ideas for an Art Deco restoration that keeps its sunburst reliefs, its skylight and its geometric ironwork.

1. At the front door

Before (AI concept): Ground-level view of the entrance of a pale limestone Art Deco mansion: stained stone with carved sunburst reliefs, a green-patinated bronze canopy, rusted black iron and glass double doors, broken windows, dead vines, two cracked stone urns and steps covered in leaves and weeds.
Before
After (AI concept): The same entrance with clean limestone and crisp sunburst reliefs, a restored bronze canopy, black iron and glass doors glowing with warm light, lit windows, two wall lanterns, clipped topiary balls in the stone urns and clean stone steps.
After

Same reliefs, same canopy, same steps. The concept cleans the limestone, relights the doors and windows and plants topiary in the old urns.

2. The entrance hall and staircase

Before (AI concept): A double-height entrance hall with a curved marble staircase and a geometric iron balustrade, a dirty black and white checkerboard floor covered in debris, a geometric glass skylight, a dusty Art Deco chandelier, stained cream walls and vines at the tall windows.
Before
After (AI concept): The same hall with a gleaming black and white checkerboard marble floor, the curved staircase with a brass and iron balustrade, a bright skylight, a lit Art Deco chandelier, clean cream walls with gilded mouldings and a round table with white flowers.
After

Same staircase curve, same skylight, same checkerboard. The concept polishes the marble, relights the chandelier and adds a single table of white flowers.

3. The music room

Before (AI concept): A music room with a dusty black grand piano covered in fallen plaster, an overturned chair, a damaged herringbone parquet floor, faded green curtains at tall leaded-glass windows, a hole in the ceiling, a marble fireplace and a gilded sunburst mirror.
Before
After (AI concept): The same room with a glossy black grand piano in the same place, polished herringbone parquet, emerald green velvet curtains, a brass chandelier, a brass floor lamp, the marble fireplace and sunburst mirror, cream armchairs and a green and cream geometric rug.
After

Same piano spot, same windows, same sunburst mirror. The concept repairs the ceiling, polishes the parquet and hangs emerald velvet curtains.

4. The library

Before (AI concept): A tall library with dark walnut bookshelves half empty, loose books and papers on the floor, a wooden ladder leaning on the shelves, a stained coffered ceiling, a white marble fireplace, a torn leather armchair and a tall arched window.
Before
After (AI concept): The same library with walnut shelves filled with leather-bound books, the ladder on the shelves, a cream coffered ceiling with a pendant light, a fire in the marble fireplace, two cognac leather armchairs, a brass lamp, a vase of flowers and a geometric rug on herringbone parquet.
After

Same shelves, same arched window, same fireplace. The concept fills the bookshelves, lights a fire and sets two leather armchairs by the window.

5. The marble bathroom

Before (AI concept): A bathroom lined in veined white marble with dark green borders, a marble bathtub full of debris, tarnished taps, a broken stepped mirror over a marble washbasin, a cracked frosted window, peeling ceiling paint and plaster on the floor.
Before
After (AI concept): The same bathroom with polished white and green marble, the marble bathtub filled with clear water, brass taps, the stepped mirror restored between two lit wall lights, folded white towels, a potted palm and a repaired frosted window.
After

Same marble, same bathtub, same window. The concept polishes the stone, fits brass taps and wall lights and fills the bath.
