Placing items in the room will take some patience, as it feels rather clunky. While the results of Sweet Home 3D were impressive, we were slightly disappointed with its control. In addition, there is an exciting Virtual Visit option that lets you walk through your home and its rooms. By dragging furniture into the grid and positioning it as you envision your redesigned room, a clear picture appears below, providing an impression of space that two-dimensional sketches cannot. At the bottom of the screen is a small box that provides the 3D view.

Below the file tree is a space for each item in the room and its approximate size. The area is a grid with measurements corresponding to room size. The left side of the screen contains a file tree for every room in the house, and clicking on each room presents a list of all appropriate furniture you can drag into the adjacent box. The program's interface is very easy to use.

With a fairly simple premise and impressive results, this slightly flawed program is certainly something to get the imagination going. Sweet Home 3D offers users a chance to see a remodeled room or a brand new home before a single nail has been driven.
