How to Measure and Photograph your Room
STEP 1 – DRAW YOUR ROOM FOR YOUR VIRTUAL INTERIOR DESIGN
-
Sketch an outline of the room from a birds-eye view. Do not worry this doesn’t have to be to scale!
-
Mark in all doors, windows, and other architectural features such as built-in wardrobes, shelving, etc.
-
Mark the location of power points with an X.
STEP 2 – MEASURE YOUR ROOM
-
Measure the overall length of each wall with a measuring tape and note in meters or in inches
-
Measure and note the ceiling height
-
Measure each wall separately and note measurements
-
Measure of windows, doors and architectural features – including height and distance from ground
STEP 3 – PHOTOGRAPH YOUR ROOM
-
Take photos during the day in good light
-
Remove any clutter from the room
-
Hold the camera or phone vertically
-
Take a photo from every angle of the room – four sides and four corners – standing on the opposite side of the room.
Try to include part of the ceiling and floor in each picture
