Homestyler for Architectural professionals

Turn your 2D plans into realistic pictures and walkthroughs.

Are you drawing in AutoCAD or another 2D drawing program and looking for a way to show clients what their spaces could look like?

Perhaps you use SketchUp but need another rendering program to create realistic pictures.

This course introduces you to Homestyler, an online design tool that works in your web browser. There is no design software to download or install, and your projects are saved online.

Learn how to take a floor plan, build up the space in 3D, add furniture and finishes, and create realistic pictures—all in the same tool. You can also create a video walkthrough so your clients can see how the rooms connect and imagine moving through the space.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

  • Use your existing floor plan as a starting point.

  • Create rooms with walls, doors and windows.

  • Add furniture, colours and finishes.

  • Set up lighting and choose views to show your design.

  • Create realistic pictures for your clients.

  • Make a short video walkthrough of the space.

Who is this course for?

Architects who work in AutoCAD or other 2D drawing programs, and SketchUp users looking for a tool that brings room design, realistic images and walkthroughs together.

No prior experience is required.
