House plan software
Hi,
I’d like to create a house plan for my house so I can tinker with some Reno plans.
I’ve had a play with sketchup but found it a bit cumbersome and slow to learn.
Does anyone have any suggestions of software I might use? Free or relative low cost would be preferred.
Thanks heaps

i had this question a while ago, and Sweet Home 3d was suggested to me - and I liked it when I used it. It wasn't something I used a lot so can't really help, but know it was a good option and a fair few vids to help kick-start your learning

Yeah I’ve been working through the google suggestions. Floorplanner looks ok. Many of the others seem overkill with monthly fees

Most of the designers and architects I have dealt with still do them by hand on paper and tracing paper and don’t go over to CAD until they have developed the concept to a point of adding the finer details
It is much quicker that way
