    The image was generated with the following prompt: A home designed for a really cool person with a small cat.  It should be minimalistic and all light green. The furniture can be of a trendy modernist/Scandinavian style, with an urban, industrial feel. It should feel neither extremely feminine nor masculine. There should be spaces for existential questioning, as well as social activities. No hanging lamps.
