House Planner

Draw house plans in 2D — walls, windows, doors, terraces and roofs — walk around them in 3D, and place them on your plot.

Every house plan you create here is waiting in the plot designer's library, under Houses → From House Planner — place it on your plot next to plants, fences and paths. Edit the plan later and the house on the plot follows. Open your plots →

1. Windows and doors from your own designs

Every window and door you design in the window and door designers waits in House Planner's sidebar, under My windows and My doors. Drag one onto a wall and see it on the house straight away — change the design later and every plan using it follows.

2. Wall appearance – textures and colors

Pick the facade finish – brick, plaster, wood cladding or metal siding – and the 3D view shows it straight away. Terraces have finishes of their own.
