Punch! Professional Home Design Suite Platinum 8

Best home-design software.Punch! Professional Home Design Suite does not offer the tutorials and wizards that come with Better Homes and Gardens’ software, but it does come with a 400-page manual. That said, reviews say Punch! is a powerful program with realistic graphics and sophisticated tools to design everything from sprinkler systems to decks. It also has electrical, foundation and plumbing planners. Altogether, Punch! is a more serious product than Better Homes and Gardens, but it takes more patience and persistence to learn.
