Hello everyone,

I am planning to redesign my apartment and am particularly interested in the IKEA Platsa system. This raises the question: Is there an official virtual planner from IKEA that allows you to insert Platsa components online and in 3D to virtually design the room?

I have already found the general IKEA kitchen planner, but so far not one specifically for Platsa. Since I would like to see in advance how the individual elements fit together and how they look in the space, such a planner for room design would be extremely helpful.

Does anyone here know more about this? Are there perhaps independent tools or alternative programs that are compatible with Platsa and can be used for virtual room planning?

Thank you in advance for your insights and experiences!

The great thing about PLATSA is its flexibility, which also allows for small adjustments in everyday use.

That’s a good point, thanks! I was actually focusing too much on finding the perfect solution, without considering that besides the on-site planning, the modular nature allows for a lot of flexibility.

Maybe it would be helpful to build the base with the IKEA configurator, and then refine the planning with third-party software.

That’s definitely what I’ll do – first try out the configurator and then continue planning with SketchUp.

Thanks to all of you for the helpful tips; they’ve already made things much clearer for me!

One more tip: If you are using SketchUp, the 3D Warehouse platform usually offers various IKEA models for download, including Platsa.

This makes virtual furnishing much easier.
