Renovate and Decorate Your Home
Get handy tools and stunning inspiration for your home makeover.
Feel like your home needs a little sprucing up this season? Or maybe you’re keen to do a little more than merely sprucing? Whether you’re knocking down walls or changing a few throw pillows, these apps can help you achieve your perfect aesthetic.
Get inspired
Find style inspiration by browsing millions of images of stunning homes in Pinterest and Houzz. Even if you’re looking for something more specific (say, design ideas for a bathroom with a sloped ceiling or some Eames-era seating), you’ll find a world of options.
Sometimes inspiration comes from real life—like when you fall in love with a hunter-green shirt and have to have that leafy hue for your living room wall. With ColorSnap® Visualizer, you can virtually paint it right above your sofa. If you like the results, the app will help you identify the exact paint color so you can turn inspiration into reality.
Plan your layout with AR
Augmented reality has revolutionized home renovations. Forget scribbling out a floor plan on paper. With Magicplan, simply point your camera around any room to instantly create a professional-looking scale model of your space. You can also edit with ease. Want to knock down a wall here? Tap. Add some appliances and plumbing there? Tap tap.
And with TapMeasure’s Quick Measure feature, allowing you to point at a wall or object to measure from one end to the other, there’s no need to carry a measuring tape.
Furnish and add flair
Once the hard work is done, it’s time for the fun part: shopping for the beautiful things to make your house feel like home. Browse furniture and accessories or filter your search to something super-specific, then have it all shipped to your front door.
Whether you peruse the millions of options in Wayfair or have an Etsy craftsman customize a piece just for you, you’ll find something that perfectly complements your newly designed space.
