Instagram-like professional social network

Project Overview

SpaceApp empowers interior and exterior designers, architects, and design enthusiasts with a powerful mobile experience that blends creativity, community, and artificial intelligence.

At the heart of the app is an AI design engine powered by DALL-E — enabling users to generate visual design concepts, experiment with styles, and instantly visualize ideas. Complementing this is an Instagram-like social network where users can share projects, get feedback, and connect with peers.

The challenge wasn’t just to develop another design app — it was to build a creative ecosystem where inspiration, AI, and collaboration converge.

Business Challenges

Design professionals often face several limitations in existing mobile tools:

• Lack of real-time visual experimentation

• Limited ability to share and discover design work

• Fragmented workflows between conceptualization and community feedback

• Few mobile solutions that blend AI creativity with social engagement

SpaceApp was conceived to bridge these gaps — delivering both creation and connection in a single platform.

Our Solution

Our team built SpaceApp as a native iOS experience with a strong focus on performance, intuitive UX, and scalable backend support. The core of the solution lies in:

• AI design generation

• Professional social network functionality

• Real-time community engagement

• Rich media content creation and sharing

🎨 AI-Powered Design Generation

SpaceApp integrates DALL-E AI to let users generate design concepts, remodel spaces, and explore stylistic ideas with text or image prompts. This AI integration makes SpaceApp unique, offering creativity tools usually found only in desktop platforms.

Users can:

• Input design prompts

• Generate multiple visual concepts

• Refine and iterate on AI outputs

• Use results as inspiration or starting points for real projects

This significantly reduces the gap between concept and visualization.

📸 Instagram-Style Social Network

SpaceApp features a professional design community where users can:

• Share projects and design ideas

• Like, comment, and engage with other designers

• Follow favorite creators

• Build a portfolio within the app

The familiar social layout promotes discovery and collaboration among designers and enthusiasts alike.

Technology Stack

To deliver this experience, we built SpaceApp with a modern, scalable stack:

• Swift & UIKit (Native iOS) — for performance, polished UI, and seamless interactions

• MVP Architecture — for clean, maintainable, and testable code

• Firebase + Cloud Functions — for backend services, real-time data, authentication, and serverless workflows

• AI Integrations (DALL-E) — to power smart design generation

This combination allowed us to balance fast performance, backend flexibility, and AI-rich features — ensuring users enjoy a responsive and engaging experience.

Results & Impact

SpaceApp delivers a unique experience at the intersection of design creativity and social engagement:

• AI-powered design generation to spark ideas and unlock creative potential

• A social platform that elevates collaboration and visibility for designers

• A polished native iOS experience built for performance and scale

• A backend setup that supports real-time interactions and future enhancements

By bringing AI design tools into the hands of mobile users within a rich community, SpaceApp stands out in the crowded world of design and creativity apps.

Why It Matters

SpaceApp demonstrates how mobile, AI, and community can intersect to create a truly differentiated digital product. It’s more than a design app — it’s an ecosystem that enhances creative workflows and opens new opportunities for professionals and hobbyists alike.
