![]() Unlike 3D photos, generating a snapshot doesn't use up any of your valuable credits. When you think you've got everything just-so, you can take a snapshot. We got a lot of snapshots like this (Image credit: Carrie Marshall) RoomSketcher enables you to take snapshots to see what your room would look like. The paint colors and wallpaper swatches are generic – don't expect a swatch of Farrow And Ball's finest paints or Timorous Beasties' designer wall fabrics – and you can't import your own images for custom textures, but there's a reasonable range that enables you to get pretty close to your desired color scheme. There's also a selection of paving stones for external use. You can also add textures from the app's selection of materials, which is organised into categories including hardwood flooring, interior and exterior paint, stone, tiles and wallpaper. In a nice touch the app can also calculate the best fit width and depth for items such as wardrobes, which is useful if you're planning to create walk-in storage. You can also add a label and adjust its font size. There's a good range of materials and furniture, and while most are generic there are branded items such as IKEA storage and beds (Image credit: Carrie Marshall)Īdding predefined objects to your design is just a matter of drag and drop, and you can stick with the default sizes – handy if you're planning a trip to IKEA for some Billy bookcases or PAX wardrobes – or adjust the item's properties to suit your particular requirements. It's worth noting that the libraries for the VIP and Pro versions are different: when you reach the end of a category in VIP, you'll see a message suggesting you upgrade to the Pro version for more objects. In the VIP version there are more than 40 different kinds of beds including familiar ones from IKEA, alongside dozens of desks, a cornucopia of cupboards and even a collection of copiers. The library of objects is very comprehensive. Creating a simple design such as a bedroom with an en-suite, including fixtures and furniture, took us all of two minutes. The interface is simple and friendly and the tools are well organised – so for example you might start with some external walls (or use one of the predefined layouts) before adding internal ones then you can switch to windows and doors before adding materials and populating your room(s) with furniture. It's exceptionally easy to use and you can create accurate and interesting designs even if you're a complete beginner. It's a shame about the pricing model because the app itself is excellent. The app is incredibly easy to use: you'll pick it up in seconds (Image credit: Carrie Marshall)
