All final specs and details are to be verified by a qualified professional, sales rep, and/or IT Specialist prior to purchasing.

And so, with much ado, we will be covering the most popular software for the Interior Design industry and their recommended minimum requirements and what that means, I will then provide a few options (which I haven’t at this point personally vetted and only linking below per other reviews and/or meeting the technical necessities). I thought I was looking toward the future but didn’t fully take into account various OTHER software requirements (other than Chief Architect). To give you an idea, I don’t even have games on my phone, I know I’m boring, but to be honest, Pinterest is one rabbit hole that can grasp my attention more than any Angry Birds ever could (was that a computer game).Įven after hours of watching Youtube reviews, reading specs, talking to Dell sales support, and highlighting the quote sheet like I was reviewing a window order I still made mistakes with the specs of that computer.

I’ll be perfectly frank here, I am a MAC girl, but due to too many requirements within my business, I re-converted to a PC when I purchased my secondary business computer, a laptop. All too often I’ve found that many designers have their heart set on a specific brand or model without fully researching what they’ll need to smoothly run their business… and this was before COVID and the giant leap for virtual design. So before you walk into Best Buy, Apple, or call Dell, brush up on the basics to make sure you can at least understand the equivalent of laying a beautiful and efficient kitchen design, but not necessarily drafting the shop drawings.Īs I mentioned in the aforementioned blog post, you need to take into account your business goals, investment abilities, software, and project scope before looking into computer specifics. There is just too much information out there and many of us are too busy to try to earn another degree or let’s say always listen to teenagers of the Geek Squad pitch us a computer without fully understanding what we ACTUALLY NEED. Designed as the precursor to this post, I mainly discuss the technical details and definitions Interior Designers need to consider when purchasing a new computer.

First things first, I will recommend you read my primarily dry and, yet, trying to be witty, previous blog post, PC or MAC | Does It Matter -#1 | What to Keep In Mind When Purchasing a Computer as an Interior Designer, Virtual Design Assistant, and Rendering Artist. #2 | The Computer Requirements and Models You Need as an Interior Designer, Virtual Design Assistant, and Rendering ArtistĪlright, so you’re reading this post for a reason, and most likely because you’re an Interior Designer who’s looking for a new computer, but have absolutely no idea where to start.
