My favorite thing about smart phone applications is their ability to communicate ideas or bring visions to life?instantly?and in ways we never thought possible. This is especially true with apps for interior design, home decorating, and do-it-yourself (DIY) home improvements. You can envision a plan for redecorating a room before you rip down walls or peel off wall paper.
With the right smart phone app for interior decorating, you seek inspiration for your dream home, rearrange the furniture in your living room before you lift a finger, test out a new wall color or estimate exactly how much wall paper you?ll need to redo your front hallway, and even manage your own home design business from your mobile device.
The following five smart phone apps?especially for BlackBerry?are must-haves for your interior design tool kit?
1. Interior Design: Photo Library ($0.99 ? for BlackBerry)
The Interior Design: Photo Library is the ideal place to start if you?re looking for a little luxury in your own home. This app features a photo collection of 50 decadent home interiors.

Plus, this app features a collection of modern and stylish furniture pieces to compliment every room. And a real bonus, you can browse popular design elements?such as famous black and white checkerboard floors, huge wrought-iron canopy beds, and cozy stone fireplaces.
