Your prompt

/beforeafter Create one landscape 3:2 comparison graphic with two equal side-by-side panels of a fictional home desk. Keep the same eye-level camera view, desk dimensions, sage wall, daylight direction, desk lamp, notebook and plant placement across both panels as closely as possible. In the left panel scatter loose papers and pens over the usable desktop. In the right panel gather those same loose items into a single neat tray, leaving the notebook accessible. Use a warm-wood desk and an ivory and sage palette with a restrained coral detail. Render "BEFORE" once above the left panel and "AFTER" once above the right panel in matching deep-navy type. Across the bottom render the exact disclosure "ILLUSTRATIVE CONCEPT" once, readable and smaller than the two panel labels. Keep the lighting and image quality matched; do not exaggerate grime or change the furniture. No people, brand marks, statistics, product claims, extra text, watermarks, social interfaces or slash-label lettering. Both panels are newly AI-generated together; this must not look like documented proof of a real transformation.

About the example

BEFORE, AFTER and ILLUSTRATIVE CONCEPT are readable. Furniture and lighting broadly align while papers move into a tray arrangement, with some fine-detail differences.

Both panels were generated together from text. This is a recorded generation of an illustrative comparison, not a real clean-up, source-versus-edit test, customer result or proof of product effectiveness.

The slash labels are informal creative shorthand. This example was produced by built-in image generation; no model name was exposed.
