Why Home Builders and Designers Switch to Cedreo
Cedreo Is Easy to Learn & User-Friendly
In contrast to design software like Chief Architect, Cedreo’s design tools are intuitive. The interface is simple enough for beginners, yet filled with features that advanced users will love. Even if you have no architectural design experience, Cedreo lets you progress from creating a simple room to designing an entire house in just hours instead of weeks.
"My experience has been great with Cedreo and learning the software was very easy. I designed my first house fully furnished within a week even with no prior knowledge of how to use the software." - Jacqueline C.
Cedreo Creates Professional-Grade 3D Renderings
Most 3D renderings from architecture software leave a lot to be desired. However, Cedreo’s lifelike 3D renderings show realistic details like textures, reflections, and shadows based on the sun’s position and artificial lighting. And unlike Chief Architect, Cedreo’s cloud-based servers create the renderings so you don’t have to worry about upgrading to a supercomputer to create 3D renderings.
"The 3D renderings that came out from the software were phenomenal!" - Steven R.

And get photorealistic renderings in just 5 minutes that you can add to your project presentation.
