Online Software for Interior Design and Decorating

seemydesign.com: "Interior Design and Decorating Online"

"Our goal is to help you explore design and decorating ideas online. Featuring interactive design tools such as SeeMyDesign™ Preview, SeeMyDesign™ Layout, and Planner as well as information about design styles, principles and elements, painting and color theory, room elements and design examples. We hope you enjoy your stay...."

Again, this is obviously a commercial website. They wouldn't mind one bit if you bought their product. I don't have a problem with that, though.

And, the service looks very cool.

For the 3D design demo software, you'd need to dedicate 20MB of your hard drive. Which I'm not about to do. I know: it's not all that much by today's standards, but I've got enough software to keep track of as it is.

The 2D layout software is something else: try that, and you'll find a pop up window with a familiar sort of click-and-drag floor plan creator. It works, and the controls are fairly intuitive. Also, fun to play with.

Bottom line? What's on this website is not going to put professional interior designers and architects out of business. But, for a do-it-yourselfer who wants to use cybernetic shortcuts in the planning stage: I think this might be a good resource.
