quids,
For just layout and spacing stuff, I've used Visio in the past to do office layouts. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/vi...140001033.aspx However, that's just a diagramming tool. And I think a pretty pricey one too. I know designers have software where you actually get to visualize the space and do mockups, not sure what they use, though. |

Re: Room/space/house Design software
Yes, I want visual, I use visio too keep track of my clients networks and stuff, but I want something like photoshop??? for interior designers. I saw a sweet Jack Daniels commercial during the Sopranos on A&E, and I want to be able to draft some ideas out, before I forget about them. Right now Im using a pencil and a friggen highlighter.
Has anyone used Googles Sketchup Pro? |

Ikea actually has a really nice free one. It's designed to lay out your Ikea furniture but obviously you can just pick Ikea products that match the size of your own.

Re: Room/space/house Design software
haha, i used google sketchup to model my room, for IKEA furniture! didn't know IKEA already had something.
i've used multiple 3D CAD programs in my previous life, so I downloaded and created this model in about 45 minutes. |
