Most of us know what we want from our new conservatory, outbuilding or roof extension. However, it’s not very easy trying to get our ideas across to our architect. How they interpret our ideas? Do we sketch our design and let them go to work or do we simply let them draw up plans based on our words. Time is money and the longer an architect spends on your plans, the more they’ll bill you at the end of the project.

One idea is to draft in an application that enables you to create you own basic 3D design and then output this to paper so they can interpret those ideas.

There’s now a software solution. Envisioneer Express is a basic version of the main edition and designed as a residential design program. It’s really aimed at people who have never created their own design. You can drop in your own walls, doors, windows and many other objects, then transform your drawing in to a 3D diagram.
