The Home Outside landscape design app is an easy-to-use alternative to highly technical CAD-type design programs. A tap-and-drag app, it features over 700 hand-drawn elements that homeowners and design professionals can use to create a simple property plan or garden layout. With thirty-four palettes of landscape elements, use a wide variety of plan-view icons to represent your house, patios, plants, furniture, activities, etc. Take or import a photo from your device to use as your design background (useful for importing a photo of your property plan.) Plot your property using the Map tool and use it as a base for your design. Your Map image is imported with coordinating scale and north arrow. Use the margin rulers to guide you in making everything the size you want it to be. Turn on or off and select feet or meters in settings. Add a layer of color with the Sketch tool. Sketch in 15 colors with adjustable line weight and opacity for drawing solid lines or a wash of color.
