Comments (2)Hi I use a combination of 3 different programs depending on the need and who it is for. Each can be used to do complete drawings depending on your needs and time. I only use Sketchup to illustrate a 3d for clients so they have a visual. It has its limitations though as major changes can be quite laborious. I use Chief Architect only to nut out multiple layout options as you can simply click and drag to draw a wall that you have pre-defined the properties of eg brick veneer exterior, stud internal etc. If you have a room dimension you want to increase, you simply highlight the wall you want to move, click on the dimension that has popped up and change it. The surrounding walls alter to adapt to the new wall location so it is quick and easy. I don't use it for detail work as being an American program a lot of the options and specs don't apply unless you get Australian add ons... For detailed CAD drawings I use Autosketch 10 and TurboCad 20. Being old school (2D) I use Autosketch mostly for over 90% of my drawing as with about 7 or 8 tools you can pretty much draw anything and it does detailed construction drawings the way I prefer. Being only 2D you have to think 3D and draw the elevations etc in 2D but I enjoy that as it helps think through how something is going to be put together.

Comments (9)I see a couple things straight up that need attending to. Overhead power lines through palm. Large areas of pebblecrete, just way to much. Lace Handrail. Doesn't suit the house style. The plants growing across the facia and close to side. Entry way for termite's. Not necessarily at that facia height but certainly a possibility down low. Tilt a Doors. Too white and standout too much. Either go with roller or panel lift or if in budget just one wide door. Say in the window frame colour?...See MoreCRM Software for our interior design business?
Comments (0)We're wanting to introduce CRM software to our business. We've been recommended Capsule, and also Workflow Max for project management. Can anyone recommend a good system for a small interior design business that integrates with our Xero accounting system?

Comments (3)I have tried floor planner but then had a go with Sweet Home 3D and loved it so much I ended up buying it. The difference is that with Sweet Home 3D you see the 3D render straight away on a split screen down the bottom. Very easy to use....See MoreSerendipity Interior Design
