View Full Version : Home Theatre room design

I am lucky enough to be doing some renovations at home which includes a
dedicated home theatre room.
I am looking for free software to download that might help with the interior
design. I already have thousands of photos from the web and room acoustic
tools etc, but I can't find that sort of free download anywhere.
If you know of any, please let me know.
All the best..................Mark

Well it's me trying to see if there is any free stuff out there. But if
there is some whiz-bang software out there that doesn't cost the earth, I'm
still interested.
Do you know of any?

dont know of any...not even sure what it is that u want it to do? is it
simply to do like a floor plan?
just figured that kinda software if it exists will be very specialised
and unlikely to be free.
just annoys me that everyone expects software to be free. nothing
personal :)

I really don't mind paying for software, so I for one don't expect it to be
free, but if it is well why pay for it?
I don't think I am going to find what I am looking for. It's more than just
a floor plan, I want it to be 3D and calculate room sizes and configurations
show acoustic requirements (etc.) to make the best room for the space I
have. I guess what I am after is too specialized, but I'll keep looking.
