It won’t turn an environmental horror into a hero, but it does help you find ways to make your build a little more efficient and reduce its environmental footprint. We also liked the Build Green option, which can help you make more environmentally responsible choices when you design your project. We mean that as a compliment, as it’s easy to create fairly complex designs with the minimum of effort thanks to the format painter and object distribution tools. It’s easy to learn, its drawing tools are very good and it feels more like using an illustration program than a home design one. TurboFloorPlan comes from the same stable as the famous TurboCAD design app, and it’s a very polished and mature product: it doesn’t suffer from the interface quirks or performance and stability issues that plague some of the cheaper apps out there.

At $49.99 it isn’t a lot of money but you get an awful lot of features. We’ve given TurboFloorPlan two gongs here: one for its quality as a Mac app, and one for its value for money on both Windows and Mac platforms.
