Social media sites have done what hardware stores could not. Sites, such as Pinterest, are able to give home owners more ideas for how you’d want to design your home online. The only problem with pinning dream homes is sometimes there’s something in the home design that you wish you could change. That’s when Digital Decorator comes in handy.
Take your pick
With 266 different paint colors, 358 floor finishes, 367 counter top styles and 92 room styles, the interior design software gives you plenty of options to tweak. Create a new bathroom, living room, kitchen or even the laundry room. If you’re not sure where to start, gather ideas from the templates on our homepage.
Best place to be picky
After registering for a free account, select a design and tweak as you see fit. Once you’re done with your home design, you’ll have the option to save it and share with friends. Digital Decorator is a great way to team up with other family members, roommates and friends to decide how to redesign a home without wasting money on furniture that doesn’t match, paint that doesn’t quite look like it did in the store and pricy home decor jobs, such as wall tiles. Get an idea of what all of these home design changes will look like before agreeing to the final product. On Digital Decorator, users can change their designs as many times as they like until it’s a perfect fit.
Comparing the competition
For homeowners who aren’t well-educated when it comes to home design, Digital Decorator gives them a step up in price comparisons. For a homeowner who isn’t sure if she’s being charged an arm and a leg for a new furniture piece, a change in tile or even new carpet, knowing exactly what the new item is makes it much easier to subtract labor costs and shipping and delivery from the supply costs of a redesign.
Ironing out the contract
Not only is Digital Decorator a useful interior design tool for homeowners. It’s also an effective contractual option for carpenters. Digital Decorator gives a rundown of the entire design so that designers know exactly what material, color and texture of each item that needs to be changed. By the time each room is completely designed, you can get a rundown of specifications on a PDF document to carry along to hardware stores or into the hands of the company that’ll be handling all repairs. Having a PDF specification list eliminates potential miscommunication between the homeowner and the designer. If both parties have the same list, there’s less room for debate if something goes wrong. This also helps the homeowner’s case to only pay for the specifications within the Digital Decorator options. (Of course both parties should agree to this legal arrangement in writing.)
