Interior Design 3D

Almost everyone owns a computer, either for personal or business related activities. As such, it’s incredibly comfortable to view designs and create projects in a virtual environment. One suitable example is Interior Design 3D, which allows you to neatly create floor plans and designs, and even explore them in 3D.

Getting started can either be done on a new blank project, or by relying on one of the built-in samples. You can choose from different designs of apartments, houses, or just rooms. You’re also able to import plans in the current project in case you want to expand the plan without manually building rooms.

The application comes with several view modes, with the default one showing both the 2D and 3D representations of the plan. You can easily switch to either of the two modes individually, as well as a virtual tour, putting you in control of a room-level camera you control similarly to a FPS game, namely with the mouse and keyboard.

Designs can become pretty complex, especially since you can add and edit a large variety of elements. The project tab allows you to draw or add rooms, dra a wall, add furniture, insert doors and windows, add lights, build stairs, stairwells, and even columns. The application comes with a decent library of items, and positioning is simply done by dragging objects in the 2D plan view.

You’re not restricted to a single floor, with the possibility to extend your construction on multiple levels. Apart from simply adding elements, the application delivers customization options through the properties panel. Values like length, height, depth, position, and angle, but also textures are found here.

Although one of the views also includes a 3D mode, there’s a completely independent virtual visit. Here you can be a guest in your own project and freely walk around. Exporting can be done as a picture, PDF, compatible file with other 3D editors, or print the plan on a sheet of paper.

To sum it up, Interior Design 3D delivers an intuitive set of view and edit tools which allow you to create the house or room of your dreams. Various objects can be added and customized with a whole range of textures, while the virtual visit makes you feel like you’re already there in the final, real build of the room.
