Built with AI.
Checked by eye.

I'm David Romero Salinas, an architect who moved into AI production.

I have 7+ years in photorealistic rendering and visual quality. Today I'm Quality Manager at BoxBrownie.com, trusted by 250,000+ real estate professionals worldwide. I set visual quality standards and build AI tools for production.

I also teach AI to architecture and construction teams, and I'm a Google Cloud Generative AI Leader.

I work best between leadership and the people doing the work: I turn new AI tools into processes a team can actually use.

I start from a photo, a 3D render or a text prompt.

AI gives speed and variations. CG and manual retouching keep the product accurate.

  • Same product in every sceneShape, color, materials and details.
  • Same cameraWhere the scene needs it.
  • Clean edgesReal contact shadows.
  • No AI artifacts at 100%Hands, faces, text and repeating textures.
  • Readable text and labelsOr remove them from unbranded products.
  • Right light for the storyNo daylight shadows at night.

Tools I built.

AI connected to production tools (MCP)

AI assistants that read and check 3D scenes directly

MCPBlenderPython
More about AI connected to production tools (MCP)

Instead of copying data by hand, the assistant talks to the software through MCP

Hybrid staging pipeline

3D precision + AI realism in one flow

BlenderComfyUIOpen-source AI
More about Hybrid staging pipeline

AI alone breaks perspective and shadows; Blender keeps camera and shadows, local AI handles harmonization

Color & alignment app

Clean training pairs from AI outputs

PythonDesktop app
More about Color & alignment app

AI shifts color and alignment; the app realigns and restores color with a LUT

Blender add-ons

Repetitive scene tasks automated

BlenderPython
More about Blender add-ons

Custom Blender add-ons automate repetitive scene tasks.

Designed by David, coded with AI assistants, deployed on Cloudflare

I build with vibe coding and MCP: I design the logic, AI assistants write most of the code and connect to the tools we already use, and I test everything in real production.

Building with AI.

I build my own production tools with vibe coding, and I connect AI assistants to real software through MCP (Model Context Protocol). As more tools open MCP connections, this lets a small team automate work that used to need a developer.

What I can do.

  • Photoreal product and lifestyle images with AI, finished by hand.
  • Responsive e-commerce PDP and landing pages in Figma, built with Claude or Codex through MCP and deterministic workflows.
  • Hybrid AI + CG pipelines: from 3D renders to AI-finished scenes.
  • Architectural and interior visualization: offline, real-time and AI-assisted video.
  • 3D asset review: models and materials ready for production.
  • AI quality systems: rubrics, automated review, team training.
  • Small production tools built with vibe coding, and AI assistants connected to production software through MCP.
