Backyard and patio ideas, from a photo of yours

Outdoor spaces are where the biggest-ticket items live: a gazebo, a grill, a dining set, a fire pit, even a swing set or an above-ground pool. Seeing them in a photo of your own yard before you buy — at the right scale, in the right spot — is the whole point of the tool.

Tips before you upload

1. Shoot in daylight from the back door or the deck, with the whole area you want to use in frame.
2. Tick only what you actually want. Each item becomes a slot in the shopping list, so a gazebo and a fire pit in the same yard will be placed together, at a sensible distance.
3. Large items are suggestions for scale, not site plans: check clearances, local codes, and permits for pools, hot tubs, play equipment, and anything with a flame before you buy.

How it works

1. Read the room. The AI studies your photo — the layout, light, and what is already there.
2. Shop the style. It writes a shopping list for the style you chose and finds each piece on Amazon within your budget.
3. See it placed. Those exact products are rendered into your photo. Swap anything, then buy it all in one Amazon cart.
