Need an extra helping hand when it comes to redesigning a room in your home? Make the most out of the latest technology and use a room visualiser to make your visions come to life. Here are four of our top favourites that are super useful and easy to use.
Topps Tiles room visualiser

Topps TIles has its own room visualiser, which allows you to imagine the space you’re working with and implement different tile designs on to it. You can simply choose a similar room setting and choose what tiles you want to go where and also narrow down preferred grout colours – there’s even a room setting with a fireplace. This is a useful tool especially for those wanting to go bold with a statement tile design, to see if it may look overwhelming or just right for the space you’re working with.
Dulux paint visualiser

Choosing the right paint for a certain room can be a bit of a guessing game. Dulux’s paint visualiser allows you to upload a photo and ‘paint’ your own room. You can explore the entire range of paint colours as well as use Dulux’s curated palettes which are a great source of colour matching inspiration. Once you’ve found a room scheme that you love, you can save your projects and paint colours as well as being able to share your choices with your friends.
