Software for Room Planning and Design?

Posted by Cliff on from the previewing-a-room-BEFORE-all-the-heavy-lifting dept.

anandsr asks: "Hi everybody, I am looking for a software that allows creating 3D models of house and furniture etc, to see how a house would look before building it, and populate it. What would you all recommend, are there any that amateurs can use." I've seen these in use in stores like Lowe's and Home Depot, but is there anything out there geared and priced for the home user?

  1. NY Lottery Picks 9-1-1 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    In a strange quirk of fate, the daily number in Wednesday night's New York State Lottery was 9-1-1, a number that readily recalls the date of the Sept. 11 attack.

    Lottery officials won't know until Thursday how many people played the number or how much money they will collect, said spokeswoman Carolyn Hapeman.

    Hapeman said "it is not that unusual" for lottery players to select the day's date for their number.

    Hapeman said Wednesday's drawing was on the up and up. "These particular numbers were picked in the same random fashion as all our drawings," she said.

    Suppose that pencil and paper would work? While it's not high falootin' as a computer, it would get the point across. Remember, if this is for yourself, people are probably not going to look at it.

    Granted it ain't pretty, but it's probably a better alternative than, say, autocad.
