Grow Your Business

Clients expect to see their space in 3D before they commit to a design.

Interior designers who offer 3D design win more clients, complete projects faster, and deliver an experience that keeps people coming back.

Adding 3D design services to your interior design business can add tens of thousands of dollars in revenue every year.

If you're outsourcing 3D design, you're paying someone else to do work that should stay in your business.

Bringing 3D design in-house gives you full control over the process, the quality, and the timeline.

What Interior Designers Are Saying

Chief Architect

Why I use Chief Architect for every project.

Chief Architect handles floor plans, elevations, cabinetry design, and photorealistic 3D modeling in a single workflow. Everything you need to design a kitchen, bathroom, or full home from concept to client-ready presentation is in one place.

If you're coming from SketchUp, Revit, or 2020 Design, you already know the limitations. Other programs are difficult to learn, slow, or lack the libraries and tools you need to produce stunning interior designs and cabinetry plans.

Chief Architect was built specifically for residential design. All my client work is designed in Chief Architect and I've been using it for over ten years.

Patrick Resendiz, Founder

I've been using Chief Architect for over ten years and have completed more than 2,000 client projects.

I've helped hundreds of interior designers master Chief Architect, produce better designs, and grow more profitable businesses around their work.

Questions

I already use Chief Architect. Will this make me faster?

Yes, and designers with existing Chief Architect experience often get the most out of this. The libraries alone save hours per project. The Rendering Application means you stop paying for separate rendering software and stop needing a high-end computer to produce photorealistic results. Most designers who join are either outsourcing renderings they should be doing themselves, or spending more time in Chief than they need to. Both of those problems get addressed quickly.

Do I need to be an advanced Chief Architect user?

No. The Training Academy includes courses that cover Chief Architect from the ground up, so designers at any level can get productive quickly. That said, designers with existing Chief Architect experience tend to see the fastest results because the libraries, Rendering Application, and advanced techniques build directly on what they already know.

What software is required?

You'll need Chief Architect. I use it for all my professional work and the training is built around it. If you're currently using Home Designer, you can follow along but will get the most value once you move to Chief Architect.

Is this a one-time course or ongoing membership?

This is a month-to-month Training Academy membership. You have access to all training, downloads, and direct support from me for as long as your membership is active.

What type of computer do I need?

Chief Architect runs on both Mac and Windows.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. You can pause your Training Academy membership anytime. Your access continues until the end of your billing period. When you decide to rejoin, all of your progress in the training will be saved.
