You know, every job starts with a plan
And blueprints are really, really important, but typically they sometimes take a professional
to draw them. What if I told you that you could actually buy a piece of very affordable software, install
it into your computer, and draw complete house plans for your next project
This is an incredible piece of software. It'll allow you to design a small garden shed all the way up to a mansion
It allows you to do complete blueprints. You can do remodeling jobs
It'll draw exterior elevations, interior elevations. It allows you to even look at the plan in three dimensions
Not only that, as you go ahead and design your home, you can insert different textures
If you want brick or stone if you want hardwood floors linoleum any type of roof that you have It even does landscaping One of the other nice things that I like about this particular plan are all the different three views You can look at different lighting setups It allow you to actually do a cutaway view much like a children dollhouse And one of the best things of all once you finish with your plan and you happy with it you can build a three model with this particular software It a patented process And you done You done You done a three model with this particular software It a patented process And you done You done You
apply little cutouts to pieces of foam board and you can actually build a 3D model of your
new home. You know, this software is really incredible stuff. It wasn't around three or four
years ago. There have been other home design software packages, but not one that is as complete
and thorough as this one. This particular software only cost $129, but in my opinion, it's worth
five times that amount. I'm Tim Carter, Ask the Builder. If you want to discover more home improvement
