I did't know what title to put, but i am looking for a online program that i can use to see what my house would look like with a garage on the side, and to also try and persuade the planners that it will look ok.

My sisters used a progam like this to design her garden, but i'm not very good on computer programs so needs to be easy to use but i'm willing to give it a go.

will be very grateful of any help

cheers steve.

 

Try google sketchup


Simon

 

Photo of house + Photo of a similar garage at the right angle + Photoshop magic = Hey presto

 

cheers i'll give both of them ideas a go get ready for a photoshop request i'll be on the hunt for a 6.5m garage to take a picture of now too.

 

You dont need that to convince the planners! You need detailed plans. Photos etc wont get you anywhere!

 

Sketchup as said.

Plus you can import images from Google Earth, so find your house, take a snapshot, and add to it on Sketchup.

 

Planners said the size should be alright but doesn't like the flat roof so i said i'd put a pitched roof on it, they said that won't look right I thought they were ment to help you out and say what they would like to see but she couldn't tell me.

I would like to see myself what it would be like any way.

 

Google earth street view hasn't got to me yet (i live in the stick's) lol

 

you could always use the sims, design ur house too while ur at it!
