Julie Moir Messervy Design Studio
Home Outside Palette App
With our heads bent over our computers or phones, it is no wonder that the tech world has been taking note. Design apps are everywhere but here are two favorites in the designer world—for both inside and outside your house.
If you’re redoing the interiors, go to floorplanner.com. This nifty app allows you to create rooms with your particular dimensions click and drag all sorts of furniture in to determine the best placement. It’s very easy to negotiate and you end up with a 3-D view of how your new rooms will look, architecturally speaking, with your furnishings added.
If you having trouble plotting and planning your garden, then you want to download Julie Moir Messervy Design Studio’s Home Outside Palette (http://www.jmmds.com/home-outside-design-app/). You can import a shot of your backyard to use as the background and then redesign your space with the specialty elements and tools page (for an extra $9.94), which includes drawing and measuring tools and palettes of shrubs, perennials, grasses, containers, and lighting. The click and draw tool allows you to tap, drag, and drop plants, patios, driveways, sheds, etc. onto the background screen. Once done, you can even send it to Julie Moir’s design studio for suggested improvements. So easy. So cool.
