my new go-to

I came across Coohom while looking for ways to furnish my tiny studio apartment — a challenging task, given the limited space. As an architect, I’m used to working with professional tools like 3ds Max for client projects, but Coohom turned out to be a surprisingly effective solution for personal use. It allowed me to maximize every square inch of my compact space by testing different configurations and discovering clever storage solutions, like lofted beds and foldable desks — ideas I might not have considered otherwise.
The drag-and-drop interface was intuitive, even compared to the more complex workflows of 3ds Max, making it accessible despite my lack of formal interior design training. While some of the premium items in the catalog felt a bit overpriced, the basic tools were more than enough for what I needed. For instance, I designed a cozy reading nook by combining a bean bag chair, floor lamp, and floating shelves — all inspired by designs I explored on the platform.
Coohom proves that creating a stylish, functional space doesn’t require a massive budget or high-end software like 3ds Max. It’s a fantastic tool for young adults or anyone starting out in a small space, offering practical solutions with a touch of creativity. For work, I’ll still stick to 3ds Max, but for personal projects? Coohom is my new go-to.
