Duplicate or copy a floor plan
Duplicate a design to spin off a version you can change freely — a different layout, furniture arrangement, or flooring — while the original stays untouched.
Want to try a different layout without losing your current one? Duplicate the design to make an independent copy. It's the easiest way to explore versions and variations — a different furniture arrangement, flooring, or wall layout — while the original stays exactly as it was.
Step by step
- 1
Go to Home
In the editor, tap the house button at the top left (next to the RoomSketch3D logo). Home opens, with all your designs listed under Your Designs.
- 2
Click the Duplicate icon
Each row in Your Designs has a Duplicate icon (the copy icon, between the tag and download icons). Tap it and an independent copy of that design appears in your list.
Tap the Duplicate icon on any design to make an independent copy. - 3
Rename the copy
The copy is called “name (Copy)” and keeps the original's tags. Tap it in the list to open it, then tap the ⋮ next to its name at the top, choose Edit design name, type a name such as Living room - Option B, and tap ✓, so your versions stay easy to tell apart. (On a computer you can also click the name itself.) See start, switch, rename, and delete designs.

Or duplicate the design you're in
With the design open, tap ⋮ next to its name → Duplicate. On a computer the copy opens in a new browser tab, so the original stays open in the first one.

Edit freely
Change anything in the copy — layout, furniture, flooring, walls — and the original is untouched. Duplicate again any time to branch off more variations.
Tips
Use copies as named versions
Before a big change, duplicate first and rename — “before remodel” vs “after” — so you can compare and always fall back.
Variations to explore
Great for A/B layouts, furniture arrangements, flooring options, or showing a client two directions side by side.
Frequently asked questions
Does duplicating change my original?
No. The copy is fully independent — edit it freely and the original stays exactly as it was.
How many copies can I make?
As many as you like — storage is unlimited. Duplicate again any time to branch off more variations.
What's the difference between Duplicate and a new design?
Duplicate copies a design you already have, with every floor, wall and piece of furniture. The Start a new floor plan options on Home start from an empty or ready-made plan instead. Both leave your current design as it is.
