Used by people around the world from students to design professionals, Floorplanner is a software that can help you visualize how furnishings and accessories will look in a virtual version of your space. Copenhagen is proud to now have Floorplanner integrated into our website and free for all to use.
“I love the practicality of Floorplanner,” says Bryan Moore, a sales and design associate at Copenhagen San Antonio. “Because I work with furniture for a living, I can visualize in my mind how things will look in the home, but the average customer can understandably have anxiety over making a pricey furniture purchase. Floorplanner helps ease some of that anxiety by providing a look at how pieces will cohere in a space and ensuring a good fit.”
Below is a tutorial for using Floorplanner, featuring Moore’s tips to enhance your shopping and design experience.
A large number, though not all, of the products on the Copenhagen site have 3D models and can be used in a floorplan. Scroll down on a product page and click on “Experience Floorplanner” under “Design in My Space.” Floorplanner will then open in a window within your current page.
