DreamPlan Home Design Software
What it is
DreamPlan Home Design Software helps plan and visualize homes, interiors, and outdoor spaces, including landscaping, decks, and pools. It supports floor plans for houses, condos, and apartments, with options to start from scratch or import a plan and trace it. Users can switch among 3D, rendered 2D, and blueprint views, and create designs with multiple floors. For outdoor layouts, the software can reshape terrain and add trees, plants, shrubs, gardens, decks, patios, and pools. For interiors, users can arrange furniture, fixtures, appliances, and decorations, then customize colors, materials, and textures. It lists JPG, PNG, OBJ, STL, 3DS, and PLY among supported project export or model import formats, and can export a web viewer in HTML. Screenshots can be shared through Google Drive, OneDrive, or Flickr. The free edition is for non-commercial use and requires no signup. DreamPlan is available for Windows, macOS, and Android. Support includes video tutorials, a help manual, a forum, and a technical-support contact route.
