Use the Design Home App to design a room to "client" specification with furniture and home accents from top brands!
Design Home App

I may have developed a slight addiction to an app that I came across a few weeks ago!   This is a live app that is available to download for free (yes it's actually free!) & gives any interior designer or budding designer the opportunity to design a room to "client" specification with furniture and home accents from top brands.

Designers then vote on their favourite designs for each project and each design is given a score out of 5 which goes towards your overall ranking.

Design Home App

The app itself is super easy to use.  I found it quite restricted on an iPad but really simple on an iOS or Android phone. You earn points that allows you to purchase items for your design. There is the option to purchase extra credit to "spend" on your items but the variety available on the free options is endless. Why not download it and let your creative juices flow!
