All-in-One Building Design Solution

Because Designer Pro PLUS is two programs in one bundle, you can choose to engage another person to complete the 2D documentation of your designs, freeing you to do the things you like the most and helping you to win more business.

Or if you like to take complete control yourself then Designer Pro PLUS gives you the best and fastest 3D building modeller in the world with the easiest professional 2D drafting tools.

Head Start

Designer Pro PLUS lets you import maps, aerial photo's and satellite images including Google Earth, then scale and work over them as part of your drawings. Directly import survey data or other CAD created drawings to get a head start on the design process.

Template

Begin your design by choosing from style templates that range from traditional to contemporary, complete with colours, cabinets, and moldings, or simply start from scratch. Works equally well in Canada or the USA as it does in Australia, New Zealand or the UK.

From Domestic to Commercial

Whether you're involved in domestic projects or light commercial enterprise, Designer Pro PLUS provides the right tools to get the job done fast. Time is money, with Designer Pro PLUS you'll be using the fastest building design program on Earth.

Powerful Design Software

Enjoy powerful automated building tools like automatic roof generation, stairs, decks, framing, dimensioning, realistic 3D rendering and more... Or take complete control of every aspect of the software with manual placement and editing of every feature. Either way, all your views update at the same time.

Space Planning

Maximise the use of a site whilst maintaining a full visual understanding of proportions, access points, overshadowing and environmental impact. Rotate you design and shift individual items or complete projects to make best use of each canvas.

Existing Floor Plans

Need some fresh ideas?. Select from over 1,500 sample plans or use the design wizard to draw the house from scratch by answering a series of questions, or simply open sample plans and customise to your clients specific needs. Leverage from the work of hundreds of designers without compromising your own artistic input.

Customise Designs from the Library

Quickly place and arrange walls, windows, doors, cabinets, and architectural objects from a library of over 4,300 items built-in to the software or choose from an inexhaustible online library to create a comprehensive detailed 3D Model in minutes.

Use the Library content to size your rooms, evaluate traffic flow, and create a visual model of your design. And because you'll read in objects from the worlds largest 3D online architectural library you will never run out or components to use in your designs.

Estimate and Check

Whilst it doesn't replace the quantity surveyor, Designer Pro PLUS automatically generates a materials list for project cost estimating and includes a Plan Check™ tool to automatically validate the design against common building principles.

Every Style

Designer is not limited to set styles. Create the internal space that you need with the look and feel you know you or your client wants. Unlike basic retail store products, with Designer Pro you are not limited to preset design styles.

Material Painter™

Point and click to choose from thousands of colours and textures or import your own for walls, floors, bench tops and more! Your design combinations are limited only by your imagination. Changes are instant.

Kitchen Planning Centre

Practicality and style blend seamlessly in a great kitchen. We've gathered the information you need to plan a perfect workspace, plus plenty of examples of kitchens that put those principles to work beautifully.

Design kitchens that will help sell your designs – move walls, drop in cabinets, add fixtures – it's easy to plan the perfect workspace.

Bathroom Planning Centre

Bathrooms may be the smallest rooms in the house, but that doesn't mean you can make them an afterthought in the planning process. We'll show you how to make the most of a limited space and explain the features that will add the most to your design.

Plan the layout of your bathrooms with custom cabinets, sinks, showers, jetted tubs etc. It's easy to visualise your ideas in 3D.

Exterior Planning Centre

Your building's exterior is the face of the building displayed to the world. Discover the secrets that other architects and designers have use to create beautiful and easy-to-maintain exteriors by using the built in Exterior Planning Centre.

Visualisation Tools

Create a virtual walk through of your design by selecting various camera views or create a virtual tour with an AVI movie.

Create Lighting Effects and Shadow Drawings

Change from a day to a night view with a single click. Add lighting fixtures from the library and create dramatic views. Visualise in the day with realistic sun shadows.

Even create automatically generated shadow diagrams and sun studies for any time of the year, anywhere on the planet.

Deck Design Tools

From a simple single level to a multi-level, you can automatically create a deck with the deck tools. Use a post and beam structure, design with or without a railing. Create the exterior shell of the building to visualise your deck design.

Multi-tier Decks

Produce realistic images of your exterior projects using a plan layout and the advanced camera tools to produce realistic images you can use to market your projects.

Create Custom Landscaping

Create Plot and Perimeter Plans on flat or hillside lots and automatically generate a 3D model of the actual terrain. Use the Terrain Feature tools to create fences, gardens, driveways, paths, and more. Build a simple landscaping plan by marking the property boundaries and selecting from the landscaping items in the Library. Design in Plan View or a 3D View to create the landscaping that's right for you.

Terrain Tools

Designer Pro has hill and valley tools to help you define your unique terrain features. Use the terrain tools to create pathways, fences, ponds, gardens, and more.
