Learning an Interior Layout Policy in a Domain Specific Language Action Space

Indoor scene layout generation is a challenging task in interior design. Existing methods often oversimplify the task by reducing room conditions to coarse 3D bounding boxes and neglecting structural elements such as doors and windows. More fundamentally, many prior approaches formulate spatial reasoning as direct coordinate prediction, thereby casting interior layout design as continuous regression over raw geometric parameters, which hinders the model from learning the underlying reasoning logic of intelligent layout design. We propose LayoutDSL, a novel LLM-based framework for learning an interior layout policy in a domain-specific language (DSL) action space. The DSL provides an explicit symbolic representation of layout information and serves as a structured action space for layout reasoning, where each action corresponds to an interpretable design decision. Under this DSL-based policy learning paradigm, we construct 3D-FrontDSL, a dataset of room-structure annotations paired with synthetic DSL action sequences for supervised fine-tuning. To promote a more generalizable and scalable policy with verifiable feedback, we design rewards grounded in interior design principles and physical plausibility, and optimize the policy via reinforcement learning. Extensive experiments demonstrate that LayoutDSL substantially improves spatial plausibility and design logicality over strong baselines and existing methods.
