Pinterest

It’s probably no surprise that Pinterest features in our top four favourite home design apps. It’s the perfect place to come up with hundreds of fantastic interior design ideas and to create your very own virtual mood board.

You can put together as many public and private mood boards as you like. Maybe one for each room in your home? You can even share your boards with friends and family members who can then pin their ideas to the boards; this is a great way to get a sense of everyone’s style and a real help when your home’s interior redesign is a joint or family affair.
