Okay, we have to clarify some things about Chief Architect here because it can be confusing.Ĭhief Architect has TWO lines of products. I saved my pennies and finally invested in Chief Architect’s “Home Designer Software” which is arguably the Rolls Royce of home design software for non-professionals. Read this review to discover what I think of it. I've been using this software for days giving it a run for its money. I don't use it for detail work as being an American program a lot of the options and specs don't apply unless you get Australian add ons.įor detailed CAD drawings I use Autosketch 10 and TurboCad 20.īeing old school (2D) I use Autosketch mostly for over 90% of my drawing as with about 7 or 8 tools you can pretty much draw anything and it does detailed construction drawings the way I prefer.īeing only 2D you have to think 3D and draw the elevations etc in 2D but I enjoy that as it helps think through how something is going to be put together.I finally got my hands on Home Designer Software by Chief Architect which is the DIY home design software platform. The surrounding walls alter to adapt to the new wall location so it is quick and easy. If you have a room dimension you want to increase, you simply highlight the wall you want to move, click on the dimension that has popped up and change it. I use Chief Architect only to nut out multiple layout options as you can simply click and drag to draw a wall that you have pre-defined the properties of eg brick veneer exterior, stud internal etc.
It has its limitations though as major changes can be quite laborious. I only use Sketchup to illustrate a 3d for clients so they have a visual. Each can be used to do complete drawings depending on your needs and time. I use a combination of 3 different programs depending on the need and who it is for.
