Open source interior design with Sweet Home 3D - Try out furniture layouts, color schemes, and more in virtual reality before you go shopping in the real world

Sweet Home 3D is an open-source (GPLv2) interior design application that helps you draw your home's floor plan and then define, resize, and arrange furniture.
