DESIGN THE PERFECT GARDEN

At last you can turn your garden into a luxury outdoor living space from the comfort of your living room. We love the way this comprehensive design, landscaping and planting software gives you the tools to create the garden of your dreams –and then walk around it in virtual 3D.

You can try out new decking, shrubs, trees, shingle areas or even a hot-tub, and select plants from the wide-ranging botanical encyclopaedia included. The real beauty is that if you find your plants are in the wrong place or your water feature is just too small, then major landscape changes are only a few mouse clicks away.

The breadth of features means that Ideal Home Landscape Design offers plenty of choice so you experiment to your hearts content and have great fun learning how to re-model the sample gardens. So, why not use the samples to play with and learn from, then use the 'how to' guide to put in the dimensions of your own garden on a blank canvas and start from scratch. You can be as outrageous or as subtle as you like and you can pick up ideas and inspiration for your own garden along the way.

Comprehensive tutorials guide you step-by-step from measuring up your home plot to viewing your fully landscaped and planted garden design in full colour 3D. We can't think of a better way to take the backache out of garden design.
