 Rating:  - Very PleasedI think this product is great! I don't know any "technical" lingo when it comes to architecture so I was a true novice. I could still navigate the program and, thanks to the tutorials, I managed to find my way around the program and learned how to use the tools. I was interested in a remodel to our current house and had no idea of what I wanted for sure and how it would work and look with our current house plan. This program enabled me to do this work on my own without hiring it done and I was able ...

I am an aerospace engineer (not an architect) but have some experience with simple generic drawing programs (eg, Visio), and am very computer savvy. The reason for this purchase is my wife and I are buying an abandoned 10 acre farm (with a very rough, 1880s style farmhouse) and I wanted to sketch out possible floor plans for renovation and additions to the house. Why this program? ... Read More Rating: - designing a homeHome Designer is a great tool for preparing to build a home. The hard copy manual has a lot to be desired. Also this program should have a laminated quick chart for the symbols on the design page. There are a lot of things that the program takes for granted that you should know. I guess if you would have started with one of BH&G cheaper versions there may have been a better learning curve that would carry over to the deluxe. It's like taking Chemistry 2 without taking Chemistry 1. Hope ... Read More |
