 Rating:  - A Puzzling Product StoryI've been working with this software five days a week, 7-plus hours a day. I've read many reviews about it. And I confess to being completely baffled by this puzzling mystery: Why don't the Punch software people invest in some good interface design for a major new Punch release? This software has such obvious potential. The review consensus, here and at other sites, seems to boil down to this: it is hands-down, the best home-design out there. AND this is faint praise because it has ... Read More Rating:  - Great Toy, Light on serious featuresIf you are looking for a program to do a 3d view of your dream home without any substance, this program is for you. If, on the other hand, you are looking for a program to help you design real projects for a do-it-yourselfer you are going to be sorely out of luck. Punch Home design Studio is just a toy with little substance. You can put up a wall and throw down a sink but you cant run piping to that sink or electric to the bathroom lights.

I am trying to draw a simple ranch with an exposed basement and cathedraled ceilings. Where do I begin? The book is useful, but I've made a lot of mistakes trying to do the simple basics of a house. Besides, who wants to read with today's technology. I still haven't figured out how to walk through the house. Thankfully ...

The interface was confusing, the interaction methods are completely foreign to the Mac. I've been using Macs since '85 and I've used hundreds of different programs. Most have a somewhat familiar feel to them, even if you DO have to read the book to use advanced features. This one was so weird I couldn't even draw a line without reading the manual first. Rating:  - Excellent home design softwareAlthough I was somewhat apprehensive about purchasing this product because of the negative reviews, I spent the dough and waited anxiously for the UPS man to show up. A couple of days later my package arrived via the turd-brown truck and was deposited into my eager clutches. I sprinted up the rickety staircase of our 1896 Victorian, only pausing long enough to request a large rum and coke from my wife, then gleefully tore into my new software. After the simple one-step download, ... Read More |
