Are you trying to envision how a piece of furniture will look in your home? You won’t be surprised to learn that there’s an app for that. In fact, there are numerous apps that will let you see how different pieces of furniture and decorations will look in the rooms of your home.

When it comes to interior design, it can be a challenge to imagine how certain pieces of furniture will look and how they’ll contribute to a room’s aesthetic and feel. In recent years, virtual reality has made things much easier. As we just explained, you can now use one of several free apps to determine which pieces will work best in rooms located throughout your residence.

Hutch App

Hutch is an intuitive app that’s easy to use even if you’ve never used a similar app before. You can simply take a picture of the room you want to refurnish, upload the snapshot and redo the space with new furniture, art and other decorations. Getting a preview of your finished space can help you avoid buyer’s remorse because you’ll have a sound idea of what your refurnished room will look like before you purchase a thing. The Hutch app is compatible with iOS and Android devices.

Houzz App

Like the interior design startup Hutch, Houzz also has an app that makes trying out different pieces of furniture in a room a breeze. The Houzz app includes all the tools and features you’ll need to virtually refurnish and redecorate a chosen space in your home from any location. The Houzz app is available in the App Store, on Google Play and at Amazon.com.

Magicplan App

The Magicplan app makes refurnishing and redecorating a breeze because it stores the measurements of the room you want to redo. The app provides instructions that are easy to follow and it has a user-friendly interface. If you plan to redecorate a room with new furniture, this is an app you should consider using. This app works with both iOS and Android devices.

Havenly App

The Havenly app is currently only available to iOS users. When you download this app, you’ll be able to get advice from an interior design professional after you upload a photo of the room you want to redo and share some information about the look you’re hoping to achieve. While the app and basic design advice are free, you will have to pay to have a professional design your space.
