Creative Freedom and Décor
Furniture and décor are carefully curated for each level, but you may place, rotate, and arrange items however you like. There is no right or wrong layout, and rooms never look identical. This freedom encourages personal expression, and the photo mode lets you capture your designs with filters and advanced camera controls.
- Use the photo mode to experiment with lighting before finalizing a layout.
- Mix and match items to discover unexpected aesthetic combos.
