There are many different design programs on the market: AutoCad, Viz, SmartDraw just to name a few. The problem is these can be pretty expensive and are usually only readily available on a school campus or by downloading for a short demo period. Fortunately there is Google Sketchup- a free downloadable program that allows you to design furniture or an entire room by creating sketches, 2D and 3D presentations. Not only can you create your own custom pieces, you can also download items from the 3D Warehouse.
SketchUp allows you to create an entire atmosphere and to become part of the SketchUp communities in which you can upload your creations for others to view, see hundreds of other models, and upload and animate your design to put on YouTube.
Here is one video of what Sketchup has to offer.
SketchUp is also having an Architecture Challange this year. Those interested click here for the rundown and details.
