DEFINITION
Architectural Preservation
The principle that virtual staging must never alter a room's walls, windows, floors, doors, or structural elements.
Architectural preservation is a core rule of ethical virtual staging. The AI must only add or remove furniture — never modify the actual structure of the room. This ensures buyers see the real architecture and aren't misled about the property's actual condition.
