Setting per-room flooring
Each room can have its own flooring. Open the Flooring tab, tap a room, and choose tile, hardwood, or carpet — then fine-tune plank size and wood tone.
A floor plan reads true when each room has the right floor — tile in the bathroom, carpet in the bedroom, hardwood through the living areas. In Room Sketch 3D you set flooring per room in a couple of taps, and it renders in both 2D and 3D.
Step by step
- 1
Open the Flooring tab
In the left panel, switch from Structural to the Flooring tab. You'll see the prompt: Tap a room to set tile, hardwood, or carpet.
- 2
Tap a room and pick a material
Click inside the room you want. Choose Tile, Hardwood, or Carpet — the room's floor updates immediately in the plan.
- 3
Fine-tune in the Inspector
For Hardwood, set the plank size and pick a wood tone (seven tones available). For Tile and Carpet, choose the color and finish. Each material has its own properties in the Inspector.
- 4
Repeat per room
Tile the bathroom, carpet the bedroom, and run hardwood through the living room and kitchen — each room keeps its own floor.

See it in 3D
Switch to 3D View and walk through — every room renders its own flooring, so the whole home reads the way it will in real life.
Tips
Match flooring to room function
Tile or vinyl for wet rooms (bath, laundry, entry), carpet for bedrooms, hardwood or laminate for living and dining — the fastest way to make a plan feel real.
Keep hardwood consistent across open areas
For an open-plan living/kitchen/dining, use the same hardwood and plank direction throughout so the space reads as one.
Frequently asked questions
Can different rooms have different floors?
Yes — that's the point. Each room is set independently: tile the bathroom, carpet the bedroom, hardwood the rest. Open the Flooring tab and tap each room.
Can I change the hardwood plank size and tone?
Yes. Select a room set to hardwood and use the Inspector to change the plank size and pick from seven wood tones.
Does flooring show in 3D?
Yes. Every material renders in both the 2D plan and the 3D view, so you can walk through and see the floors as they'll look.
