Sweet Home 3D is a free interior design application which helps you draw the plan of your house, arrange furniture on it and visit the results in 3D.

Sweet Home 3D is available in two versions, both bundled with a private copy of Java:

  • A free version available on this page (see download options on your right) is bundled with 100 pieces of furniture and 26 textures
  • A paid version available on the Microsoft Store, automatically updated and bundled with 1500 pieces of furniture and 418 textures.

Does Sweet Home 3D let you design in 2D?

Yes. Sweet Home 3D helps you place all your furniture and designs on a house 2D plan, but it previews a 3D render.

Is Sweet Home 3D free?

You can download and use Sweet Home 3D free of charge, for personal or commercial purposes. Nevertheless, if you want to, you can donate any amount to the Sweet Home 3D project.

Can you use Sweet Home 3D offline?

Yes. Sweet Home 3D runs offline on most operating systems, but you can also use it online from any browser supporting WebGL.

Does Sweet Home 3D work on Linux?

Yes. Sweet Home 3D runs on Windows, macOS, Linux and Solaris.

Which are the best Sweet Home 3D alternatives?

SketchUp and DreamPlan Home Design are great free alternatives that work on Windows and macOS, but neither works on Linux as Sweet Home does.

Features

Draw straight, round or sloping walls with precise dimensions using the mouse or the keyboard.

Insert doors and windows in walls by dragging them in the plan, and let Sweet Home 3D compute their holes in walls.

Add furniture to the plan from a searchable and extensible catalog organized by categories such as kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom...

Change color, texture, size, thickness, location and orientation of furniture, walls, floors and ceilings. While designing the home in 2D, simultaneously view it in 3D from an aerial point of view, or navigate into it from a virtual visitor point of view.

Annotate the plan with room areas, dimension lines, texts and show the North direction with a compass rose.

Create photorealistic images and videos with the ability to customize lights and control sunlight effect according to the time of day and geographic location.

Import home blueprint to draw walls upon it, 3D models to complete default catalog, and textures to customize surfaces.

Print and export PDFs, bitmap or vector graphics images, videos and 3D files in standard file formats.

Extend the features of Sweet Home 3D with plug-ins programmed in Java, or by developing a derived version based on its Model View Controller architecture.
