This paper presents a mobile-based interior design solution using Augmented Reality (AR) to help users visualize furniture in their own space before making a purchase. The system is designed using Java, the Android SDK, Google's ARCore framework, and Firebase for backend support. It enables furniture owners to upload their furniture, which can then be viewed in real-time by customers through AR. Initially developed using Unity and ARCore for rapid prototyping, the system was later rebuilt with native Java for better Android integration and flexibility. This paper outlines the challenges in traditional interior design methods, the motivation for using AR, and the step-by-step development of an AR-based shopping interface for interior design. Our goal is to bridge the gap between imagination and reality by allowing users to digitally place and preview furniture in their real environment, improving decision-making and reducing product return rates.
