Text Semantics to Image Generation: A method of building facades design base on Stable Diffusion model

Abstract

Stable Diffusion model has been extensively employed in the study of archi-tectural image generation, but there is still an opportunity to enhance in terms of the controllability of the generated image content. A multi-network combined text-to-building facade image generating method is proposed in this work. We first fine-tuned the Stable Diffusion model on the CMP Fa-cades dataset using the LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) approach, then we ap-ply the ControlNet model to further control the output. Finally, we contrast-ed the facade generating outcomes under various architectural style text con-tents and control strategies. The results demonstrate that the LoRA training approach significantly decreases the possibility of fine-tuning the Stable Dif-fusion large model, and the addition of the ControlNet model increases the controllability of the creation of text to building facade images. This pro-vides a foundation for subsequent studies on the generation of architectural images.
