IKEA is not a company we ordinarily associate with software, but it does know to sell
office furniture, and to that end there's a handy little download on its web site called the
IKEA Office Planner. It's a free app for
Windows that lets you visualize the physical layout of your office, drag and drop models of furniture into it, and see
it rendered in 3D. Of course, the whole point of the exercise is to get you to buy IKEA's flat-pack wares, and it'll
even tally up the price of all your 3D furniture for you, but you could also just use it to get a feel for how much
desk you have room for before hitting Office Depot.

Can I show this 3d model to IKEA managers and they make it? Does it have 3d samples? For example I just want to plan my room...

I downloaded the software and its size is only some more than 4 megabyte. After I install it I ejnoyed the 3D display of a room. Really, it is fun.

Like your viewpoint. By the way, there's this iPhone catalogue app that just looks cool. Love how it's so easy to flip through, just picture sitting at a coffee shop and browsing the catalog. Not just that, there's details in the zoom in which helps you pick your favorite pieces.
