Systems and methods for visual search enable input of a digital image to retrieve images that complement the input image. A digital image is uploaded to a website or input into an application. This may be done from a mobile device having a digital camera. The digital image is analyzed and indexed according to its attributes, such as coloration, saturation, light, complexity, and presence of shapes or objects. Search criteria are structured according to the analyzed image and the indexed image is used as an input in a search of images in a database. Systems and methods enable searching for home décor items that complement an input image and enable inputting an image of one type of item (e.g., a piece of furniture) and finding items of another type (e.g., artwork) that complement the item in the input image.
