Miami-based Daniel Brandt is a strange bird: A former environmental lawyer turned master craftsman, he's renowned for creating out-of-this-world one-off billiards tables. Perhaps most striking is that he's an aesthetic chameleon, with no self-imposed design cues that read consistently from one creation to the next. Instead, Brandt extracts the client's vision, and executes it at a high level.
"As inspiration, we ask our clients a question to which each of them has a different answer. The question is: If you had the opportunity to throw conventional ideas away, and reflect the 'real you' through the design of a room, would you do it? What would it be?"
As a result, Brandt's portfolio is staggering in its range:
Brandt's client list includes the Rolling Stones, the Miami Heat, Al Gore, HBO, Paramount Pictures and more. I'll put it to you this way: When Pininfarina wanted to get into the pool table game, guess who they called? Their collaboration, the Vici, is below.

Almost all of these look like AI renderings. The proportions are all over the place. Some tables are super low, some are super tall. One image has over 20 balls on the table. Another one has the table as long as the pool cue.... one has a shiny surface, I"m sure that's great for pool.
I hate to be that guy but why do so many of these look extremely suspiciously like AI-generated images?
