Frank,
Anyone in this group use the software.
I have not seen BHG Home Designer, but when I designed our house back in
2003, I used "3D Home Architect" to get an approximate idea of what the
finished house would look like. I hand drew the actual plans in a
different program (a page layout program actually), but 3D Home Architect
worked great for seeing what the house would look like inside and out. My
wife isn't real good about visualizing something just by looking at plans,
so having the 3D images to look at were extremely helpful during our design
phase.
Of course, there were many issues with the software, especially with things
like designing the roof. I had to fiddle with a lot of workarounds to get
things to look like the image in my head, but in the end the 3D renderings
look very close to the way our house actually looks now that we're done
with it.
Excellent for visualizing, but I wouldn't think of using it to develop the
actual plans.
Take care,
Anthony
