![]() ![]() If you want to see how the workshop and my studio will look as well, check out this quick video I made early in the renovation process. In fact, an astute observer of 3D printers could probably identify each of the six 3D printers shown. Notice how much easier it is to see what I'm planning than if I had just included an illustration with a bunch of boxes. This became quite helpful as I was trying to map out our house. A room planning product knows of rooms, doors, and walls. Diagraming tools know of objects and groups. That said, this is where Live Home 3D starts to differ from a traditional diagramming tool.

I'm very glad I did.įor the top-down floor plan view, Visio, OmniGraffle, or Live Home 3D all would have done about the same job. I ran into some licensing snafus that the support folks helped me with, but by that time, I'd started researching other tools and found Live Home 3D. That's $99 (or $199 for the pro version) for a year. Instead, I went with OmniGraffle, a decent-enough diagramming program for the Mac. Plus, no native MacOS Visio app?
