easy-to-use kitchen design program with 3D viewing. As soon as the
program starts, its ease of use is unveiled with illustrative buttons
for kitchen designing – including cabinets, doors, windows, appliances,
light fixtures, ceiling, floor, chairs, tables, islands, dinette sets,
ovens, sinks, dishwashers and ventilation hoods. Anyone who can turn on
their computer and use a mouse will find this program fun and simple to
use. Items can be quickly and easily placed in the design. Lines,
circles, arcs, pie shapes, boxes, ellipses, dimensions and text can also
be added to the 2D view. To see what the kitchen would really look like,

Instant Kitchen
Design features drag and drop ease of use. Any homeowner or designer
can quickly and easily specify placement, size and rotation to design
the kitchen. And because the layout of the kitchen is done in a 2D
view, designers with limited computer experience can master the
program. All that's required is to drag items into the kitchen design
area and drop them in place.

 |
The kitchen
becomes ‘real’ in 3D view with the click of a button. The kitchen
can be rotated to display certain characteristics or be zoomed to
get a close up view of something like the kitchen faucet. Viewing
the kitchen in 3D shows a real-life picture of how the design will
actually look. Features in 3D view include: saving, printing or
e-mailing the 3D image, panning the view right/left/up/down,
zooming in and out, moving the camera right/left/up/down and
rotating the kitchen to the right or left.
