i forget the name of the program but its big $$ if it comes to mind i'll let you know. i'd just use ms paint....couple triangles here some squares there *bam* you got yourself a house . or you could always pay someone to do the blueprints for you

3d home architect. I use it alot and i think i borrowed it from kazaa. Works great.

Autocad
Architectual Desktop
Punch Pro, Professional home design.

And thats all you need to use. The punch pro is kinda new to the market and a bit unrealistic when it comes to dimensioning and working drawings

I am in architectual engineering so I know this crap, My main focus is actually homes, I dont like designing office buildings or strip malls.

To make a quick design, make a hand drawing first, then take it from that, use auto cad to make working drawings and then you'll have to send thoes to an architect.

If you want to, make me a quick sketch of what you want your crib to look like and send it to me, i'll come up with something quick and give it to you as a reference.

Hey can you do me a favor and draw up some blueprints for a garage. 36x30' with 9' celings, 3 single doors, 6x12 pitch roof with trusses.

Sure can, but not this week, I have school work over my head, it blows, plus it seems you know what youre talking about, so you can do it. :P

I know what I want the building to look like I just don't know how to draw up blueprints. I need a set to hand into the township to get the permits to build the damn thing.

Xgenturbo

When do you need this by?

Reddy

There's no real hurry so whenever

Ok, i'll need to know your zoning bylaws when it comes to building anything, I'll need to know the water table and it would help havind a picture of where you want the garage built and a quick hand sketch of what you want it to look like.
