13 interior design apps that instantly help visualise new rooms

If you’re thinking of giving your house a revamp, the hardest part is always visualising exactly how it’s going to look at the end. Because who wants to spend weeks painting and decorating and realising that metallic peach was a mistake?

Thankfully, room design apps and interior design software is more than accessible in 2020, and now we can get a glimpse of the final result before we’ve even started. They’re also ideal if you’re still shopping around to find furniture that you like, and most retailers offer some sort of ‘try-on’ feature these days.
