Furniture design software

[stefanmz]

Hi! Is there some 3d model software like solid works but for designing furniture? With built in furniture models though since I don't have my own and I don't think the store will be able to provide them, I haven't asked, but it will be more convenient if there are built in. Or maybe you can link a location where I can download them if you know.

no, there's no reason for anybody to make a tool limited to specifically furniture. all 3D software have models that are either in their libraries or that you can find everywhere online for any kind of topic so you can just use any software you want if you are focused on the look not the manufacturing. Blender is the obvious free recomendation.

Most people use SketchUp for this

If your looking for something a bit more powerful I would use FreeCAD

Thanks! I also got a student license of Autodesk AutoCAD, that seems professional I might try that. If it's too complicated I might try something else. I will take a look at FreeCAD. Is it better to use than AutoCAD though? If not well I already got a license of AutoCAD I will use that. If it is better for my case I will take a look. What do you say? Should I bi=other trying it or should I stick with AutoCAD? It seems similar so I don't know.

Yeah but I can't import models sadly. I will try with the free version, but if I can't import files and I don't want to pay it won't work
