What it is: An app to help visualize a room redesign on a mobile device.
What it does: The Genie Design app allows users to see décor and product changes instantly. Once a picture of the space to be redesigned is uploaded, various materials and products can be selected from a catalogue of tiles, countertops and more. The launch version of Genie features hundreds of products and more are being added on a weekly basis. The firm intends for the app to serve as a “virtual” showroom for designers, dealers and manufacturers. The app is still in the beta stage and therefore is continuously being tested and updated.
Who it’s for: Designers, architects and homeowners.
Why kitchen and bath designers need it: This app allows kitchen and bath designers to work along with clients to try out different products in the actual room where work will be done with no muss or fuss. It is a way for the client to try something without any actual labor, costs or lag time. Designers and clients can test a wide range of products and colorways, narrow their choices and order samples at the touch of a button.
