Hi everyone, I'm the founder of Decorator! The app came about because I was obsessed with The Sims as a child (I've probably built and decorated 200 houses). Once I became a software engineer, I decided to build it for real-life!
In addition to some editing tools built into the app...
- Tap to repaint the walls
- Drag in furniture (so far from One Kings Lane or Lumens)
- Sketch out ideas
- Leave comments
...one of our big goals is to create a community for people to share home decorating ideas. We encourage you to test out new paint/furniture in your own room, but also to share ideas with other people.
You might not think of yourself as an interior designer, but we think you'll find it's really fun once you try it.
We've love to hear your feedback! Thanks for your votes!
@vanessa_ronan Love the inspiration and idea for Decorator. Would be great to hear your plans for expanding your furniture catalogue and how we might be able to help at Article (https://www.article.com/).
@phixx Hi Duncan, thanks. An expanded furniture catalog is in the works! We'll be adding more types of furniture like couches and tables soon.
Tbh we weren't intending to launch on PH until April, so our catalog isn't fully built out yet. I woke up this morning to find us here even though I didn't post (and it says I did). So we're rolling with it!
We're getting new furniture companies on board right now so I'd love to chat. Send me an email at vanessa@decoratorapp.com.
I'd prefer a professional. I used Modsy and got three professionally decorated, 3d designs of my basement for only $80. pics here: https://www.facebook.com/media/s...
@alancassinelli Hi Alan, I agree those look great and $80 is very reasonable. We're catering toward a demographic that's more the DIY type -- people with Pinterest boards who want to be heavily involved in their home design process. We're also enabling people like this to share design ideas even though they aren't professionals.
P.S. It depends how much you plan to use the TV and how many seats you want in front of it, but I think option 1 looks the best.
@vanessa_ronan thanks - i think that "design dilemma" should be the entire focus of the site. there are oodles of people out there with design talent and sensibilities that rival or exceed that of the experts. houzz already proves this, but they have massive current emphasis on commerce. you have an opportunity to really capture and engage the real people who struggle with making things look great every day in their homes - and then capture the commerce side of those compositions ;)
