United Kindom, July 2013 (Marketing Empire PR) - There is no doubt that smartphones have revolutionised the way people conduct business, but who would have ever imagined that phones would also change the way that many are re-modelling their kitchens and bathrooms.
Once the decision is made to renovate or update one’s home, it’s easy to wonder what those changes will actually look like. Picking colours and options in a store doesn’t always paint a very good picture in a person’s mind, but surprisingly, there are number of applications that offer a powerful way to indulge in fantasies of home design options.
These applications are available through both the Apple iPhone Store and the Android Market. One app, Home Design 3D, let’s iPhone users create virtual models of their home by creating virtual renderings complete with paint colors and furniture. Android users can also use a similar program called Build App Pro. The advantage to this application is that it allows contractors to help calculate the costs related to configured renovations.
For people who want to remodel their kitchen, there are more specific applications available that can help streamline the process of choosing colours, appliances and fixtures. The Remodelista app is available to iPhone users, and celebrities like Gwynneth Paltrow have even admitted to their fondness for the program.
An alternative to Remodelista that is available to both iPhone and Android phone owners is the Houzz Interior Design App, which has been named “the Wikipedia of interior and exterior design,” by CNN.
Ryan Henderson, Managing Director of Henderstone, a leading supplier of granite and quartz worktops based in Kent (UK), explained, "Apps have really revolutionised the way we do business. Many of our customers who come into our showroom already know what they want because of an application they utilised prior to their visit. Not only does this simplify the process, it opens the door for a comprehensive discussion of a client’s needs and wants that contributes greatly to customer satisfaction."
Despite the fact that applications offer handy and unique ways to visualise a remodelling project, it’s often best to consult with a design specialist or contractor before making permanent decisions. Even the best laid plans can go awry without the right preparations, so exploring all available options will help cover the necessary bases and keep one’s project moving along smoothly and seamlessly.
