Are you a planner? If you are thinking of moving, renovating, or just rearranging furniture, then you will love Homestyler, a Web-based interior design program that anyone can use for free.
As I’ve mentioned here before, we have moved a lot. As our family grows, the need to plan ahead becomes greater. For example, when we moved from a townhouse in Arlington, Virginia to an apartment in Manhattan, we needed to know what furniture would fit and what furniture we needed to buy at IKEA before we sold both our cars.
When we moved to Syracuse, we no longer had space issues, but by drafting up a floor plan of the new house, we knew exactly where to tell the movers to reassemble the bunk bed and un-do the entertainment center.
I’ve always created floor plans with pen and paper, and have even cut out tiny scaled images of our furniture so we could move it around with our fingers, rather than our biceps. However, it can take quite a bit of crumpled paper to get it right.
