    Architectural design help needed

    Is there an app that would be more or less easy for a newbie to use to design a gazebo?

    sketchup, it's the best free design software I've ever used. I've even designed museums on it. To be honest though nothing beats a pencil and paper.

    Rhino and ecotect, but that'll be massive overkill for designing a gezebo. SketchUp is easily the best bet, it's not like you need to put in plumbing or insulation or anything. You really don't need complicated software, if any at all.

    I've seen plans for decks and such in Home Depot. Check in the lumber section nr. the trellis material.

    How insulting. I might be lots of things, but i dont tell blatant lies to look clever. This chancer also said he designed the extension for Buckingham palace in another thread. Plus i would never pretend i lived in that horrible excuse for a country.

    Im not sure if you are just counter-trolling me, but the bawsack in question isnt displaying a British flag. So your comment of being fond of brits is a little confusing.

    After three years of studying architecture full time I've designed lots of crappy buildings. Just because all you do with your time is cry and masturbate doesn't mean that's what the rest of us do.

    And for future reference, England is one of the countries in Britain (it's the big one just east of Wales) but I'll forgive you or not knowing that since you're from Afghanistan and everything.

    Yeah its a horrible excuse for a country. It cant exist without stealing other countries oil, much like america in that respect. Its also full of dicks like our own cafeterrace. People that pretend they design museums.
