How to plan your home design online?

HomeByMe enables you to draw and decorate your entire house but also to tour it in 3D. Build your 2D floor plan, furnish it and watch it be brought to life with our 3D technology.

What is home design?

Home design is the art of creating an aesthetically pleasing interior, whether you are designing a new house from scratch or redesigning and remodelling an existing one. You don’t need to be a professional architect to redesign your interior, you only need to learn how to design your dream house!

Plan your home design online

The first step to getting started on your project is to create an outline of your existing house and then start to piece together how you would like it to look after the remodel.

Our floor plans enable you to test different layouts, paint colors and decorations and visualize them in 3D before making any decisions.

You can also create realistic images to share with others, in order to gather feedback and make adjustments to your design.

How to plan your home design with HomeByMe

Draw your floor plan layout

HomeByMe allows you to create your dream interior without any special knowledge or training. Build your floor plan by drawing the walls and inserting the windows and doors. If you’re short on time, our Floor Plan Creation Service can create your floor plan from a rough sketch.

Furnish your home

Bring your designs to life, by adding flooring and decorating the walls with paint or wallpaper. Next, select furniture, kitchen appliances, bathroom fixtures and accessories from our extensive product catalog. Shop brand-name products directly through their link or choose generic products, which can be customized to fit your needs. Once you have inserted your items, drag and drop, rotate, duplicate or replace with similar items, until you are happy with your design.

Tour your project and share HD images

Once your designs are complete, you can take a 3D virtual walkthrough of your property, using the first-person perspective tool. Produce high-definition 3D rendered images of your design, which can be printed or shared with friends and project partners, to gather feedback. HomeByMe’s advanced software also allows you to generate high-quality 360º views of your property.

Home Design Tips

Choose a design theme

When you’re beginning your project, it can be useful to do some research in order to figure out your preferred style. Choosing a style for your home will help to create continuity as your move from one room to the next. Seek inspiration from the HomeByMe project gallery and browse furniture websites to get an idea of how your favorite pieces are priced. Next, create a mood board, gathering your favorite interior design looks and see if you can spot a trend.

Plan your dream interior with a floor plan software

Once you have chosen a style, you can start planning your house design. Use our intuitive floor planner to gain spatial awareness: to understand how furniture will fit into your space and how you will circulate around your home. Experiment with your furniture layout, color and style and test different fixtures and fittings.

Decorate creatively

Use HomeByMe to visualize your space and make better decisions when decorating your home. Will your design have a neutral color palette or will you add an accent color, using accessories or a feature wall? Don’t be afraid to mix price points and textures, placing designer decor next to refurbished furniture and adding plush rugs and fluffy cushions to break up hard surfaces.
