Punch Professional Home Design Platinum Suite 8

If you've ever dreamed of being an architect or landscape designer, this software may be tailor-made for you. The program offers a suite of extraordinarily intuitive tools to help design a home, bringing a user step by step through the process from foundation to roof. A simple drag-and-drop interface helps finish a project with everything from electrical sockets to trees in the yard, drawing from a huge library of interior and exterior objects. A 3D preview function, complete with variable lighting, allows a would-be designer to see the work as a whole. The trial version of the download does have tight restrictions, disabling many of the tools and objects and making it impossible to save work. However, we recommend the tool strongly to anyone in the process of designing a home or landscaping a yard.
