Architect 3D Professional, published by Avanquest from the Punch! Software line, is home-design software for Mac that covers a whole project in one place: draw floor plans in 2D, watch the house take shape in 3D, furnish the rooms, plan the garden, and produce photo-style renders to show how it will look. It is aimed at serious DIY renovators and small-scale designers rather than professional architects.

Key Features

• Linked 2D plan and 3D view — changes in one appear in the other
• Wizards for fiddly parts such as foundations, roofs, stairs and fitted kitchens
• Large libraries of furniture objects and materials to furnish and finish rooms
• Landscape tools for gardens, decks, patios and pools
• Photo-realistic rendering and virtual walkthroughs of finished designs

How to Download

1. Check your Mac meets the requirements below — this is an older release, so confirm macOS compatibility first.
2. Use the green Download button on this page to reach the developer's website; the Architect 3D line is now sold in newer editions through the official Architect 3D and Punch! stores.
3. Install the edition you buy, enter the licence key emailed to you, and start from a sample plan or a blank project.

System Requirements

Version 19 is a 2017-era Intel Mac release, so it belongs on older macOS versions. The current Mac edition of Architect 3D (version 22) supports macOS 11 Big Sur through the latest macOS, natively on Apple silicon as well as Intel — the safer choice for a modern Mac.

FAQs

Should I buy version 19 or the current edition?

For any recent Mac, buy the current Mac edition from the official store: it is the one that runs on Apple silicon and current macOS. Version 19 only makes sense if you maintain an older machine and setup.

Is Architect 3D professional CAD software?

No. It is consumer home-design software with strong visualisation, not a replacement for the CAD and construction-document tools architects use. It is sold as a one-time licence from the official stores; no keys are provided here.
