Auto-furnish — 62 design ideas you can pick from and edit
Tap the Auto-furnish wand, draw a box over any area, and pick from 62 ready-made design ideas ranked by fit — or a whole-room layout. It drops in against your walls; edit anything.
A blank room is the hardest part of any design. Auto-furnish does the first pass: tap the wand, draw a box over the area you want furnished, and RoomSketch3D offers 62 ready-made design ideas — ranked so the ones that fit your box come first — plus whole-room layouts for a kitchen, living room, bedroom, or bathroom.
Nothing it places is locked. Pick an idea and it drops into your plan against your walls; flip through its variations, preview in 3D, then move, swap, and resize every piece like ordinary furniture.

Step by step
- 1
Arm the Auto-furnish wand
In the editor toolbar, tap the Auto-furnish wand. The panel opens to Auto-furnish an area and prompts you to draw a box over the space you want furnished.
Tap the Auto-furnish wand in the toolbar to begin. - 2
Draw a box over the area
Drag a rectangle over the room, tracing its walls. Use the corner handles to resize it until it fits — the ideas are sized to the box you draw, so a tighter box gives a better fit.
Draw a box; ideas that fit your space come first. - 3
Browse 62 design ideas — or whole rooms
Each idea is tagged Fits or Tight with its piece count and size. Filter with Whole rooms (a full kitchen, living room, bedroom, or bathroom), All ideas, or a category — or search by name, like a reading nook or a coffee station.

Flip the variations
Each idea comes several ways. Tap between the variations to see each arrangement swap in instantly, or tap Back to choose a different idea.

Preview in 3D, then edit freely
Tap View in 3D to judge it at eye level, then Done to keep it in a single, undoable step. From there it's ordinary furniture: select any piece to move, rotate, swap, or delete.

Tips
Trace tight to the walls
The ideas are sized to the box you draw, so the closer your rectangle follows the real walls, the better everything lines up. Nudge it with the corner handles before you pick.
Skip the box — start from a room
You can also open Auto-furnish from a detected room (its label offers the wand), and the panel opens already sized to that room.
Common mistakes
Drawing the box loosely
A box that overshoots the walls gives a layout that floats away from them. Trace close, and tighten it with the resize corners before you pick an idea.
Expecting the layout to be locked
A placed idea is plain furniture, not a special object. If a piece is wrong, just select and edit it — there's nothing to unlock.
Frequently asked questions
How many design ideas are there?
62, ranked so the ones that fit the box you draw appear first, each labeled Fits or Tight. There are whole-room layouts too — kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom.
Can I edit the furniture it places?
Yes, completely. Once you tap Done, every item is ordinary furniture in your plan — move, rotate, resize the room, swap pieces, or delete anything.
What if the idea isn't quite right?
Flip its variations, or tap Back and pick another — they swap in instantly. You can also resize the box for a different footprint.
Does placing an idea undo my other work?
No. It adds furniture to the area you drew as a single, undoable step; the rest of your plan is untouched, and one undo removes it.
