Luxury Housing Trends & Home Improvement Ideas

Every now and then you get the urge to move furniture, or perhaps you’ve bought a new piece and you’re trying to figure out how everything will fit in. This can involve a lot of grunt work as you (or your significant other under your guidance…) push sofas, chairs, tables, etc. around the room. If you want to take some of the labor out of choosing a furniture arrangement, then something like this Home Design Planner’s Board might help.

It is a planning system in the form of a board game. It comes with accurately scaled magnetic templates shaped like walls, furniture, and decorative components, which you can arrange to create small versions of your rooms. Arrange the pieces on the board before you do any actual moving in your home. The description promises “you’ll save up to 80% of the time (and expense) normally associated with designing tasks.” (Now, if the game just moved the furniture for you too…)
