Original abstract

Complex 3D spatial text to image generation requires models to convert natural language into stable visual geometry, not merely semantic appearance. Existing prompt-driven or layout-conditioned methods improve controllability, but often lack an optimizable and verifiable spatial intermediary before visual sampling. As a result, object relations, occlusion, visibility, and camera constraints can decay during multi-round generation. This paper presents SpatialGuard, a structured layout-guided framework for complex 3D spatial text-to-image generation. SpatialGuard parses prompts into image synthesis-oriented 3D layouts through a Spatial Layout Architect, realizes them as visual conditions and candidate images through a Visual Realizer, and uses a Visual Alignment Critic to validate consistency among prompt, layout, and image. To keep constraints stable across iterations, SpatialGuard introduces a Layout Harness that organizes rule constraints, tool invocation, shared knowledge, and feedback loops around the editable layout state. This design turns complex spatial generation from implicit prompt following into a verifiable process of planning, realization, validation, and repair. Comprehensive experiments show that SpatialGuard achieves state-of-the-art performance in complex 3D spatial layout generation and improves spatial faithfulness over existing text-to-image and layout control baselines.
