Create and share floorplans with Floorplanner

Create and share floorplans with Floorplanner

Whether you are a homeowner trying to best squeeze all of your new furniture into your new space, a student experimenting with different furniture placements, or just thinking about knocking out a few walls and creating a new space, FloorPlanner could be your space-planning answer.

This free application takes the pencil, drafting table, and the $150/hr architect out of the equation and lets everyday people create and play around with floor plans online. Floor plans are simple to create with a feature rich toolset of drawing tools and household items to place on plans. Users start off by creating living space walls, choosing flooring material, adding doors and windows, and dropping in furniture and electrical outlets. Walls can be moved, colors changed and furniture moved all with a simple click until the perfect plan is set. Floor Plans can then be saved, printed, shared with friends and eventually turned into a 3d space. (In testing mode and only available in Plus and Pro accounts.)

This free online floor plan creation tool is a joy to use. Its simple controls and clean layout make it easy to create rough layouts for all kinds of living spaces quickly. Users can get as creative as they wish, and quite possibly use this as a base design for architects, interior designers and construction trades.
