kitchen remodeling ideas app
once i've furnished my design, i can experimentwith surfaces and materials. as you can see in the designer, this is thesame layout i've been working with in previous videos. i've got it mostly furnished and goneahead and named this design to distinguish it from my other saved designs. i'd like to examine the possibility of addinga closet to the living room, and an additional pantry or laundry space in the kitchen. drag and drop the closet object from the buildtab to add a room or closet to any design and resize to fit your space requirementslike i've done here. after a quick review, i've decided to takeadvantage of nearby plumbing in the kitchen
and create a laundry. and i think the livingroom would be better with some bookshelves that i can add later, so i'll select the closeti added there and delete it. notice that homestyler won't let me placethis washer/dryer unit because of the open dryer door. however, i can disable an itemsplacement rules and allow it to overlap to take this into account. now i'm ready to make some refinements tomy design and see how these changes will impact the look and feel. when i click a room in the 2d view, the infopanel opens and provides several options. clicking info allows me to add a room labeland set baseboard size, or turn them off.
clicking room style allows me to view andchange the room's flooring,wall treatment , baseboard color, and countertops. clicking delete prompts you to verify thatyou actually want to delete the room. after spending time designing and furnishinga room, it's nice to be warned before it's deleted. any changes to room style are instantly reflectedin the designer, but to see different wall treatments or baseboard colors, you'll needto view your design in 3d. wherever i'm working with content from homestylerpartners, i can click the website link to open a new window to the manufacturer's pagefor the product i'm considering. from the manufacturer site i can get moreinformation about their product.
when i switch to view in 3d, i'm able to seethe color i applied to the living room walls from the 2d view.from the furnish & decorate tab, under surfaces, i can explore other colors or wall treatments.by dragging a different color onto a wall, i can instantly repaint an entire room. or,hold down the ctrl key to paint one wall at a time. you can also click specific objects such asappliances to examine their options. selecting the refrigerator and clicking infoallows me to remove the ice and water dispenser, or to choose a different available finishfor this model. in homestyler, it's easy to experiment withdifferent furnishings, materials, and options
