Good morning everyone, I am looking for an app or software that can help me plan Ikea Platsa furniture. I want to create some custom combinations but first want to plan them virtually to check if the dimensions and variations really fit. Is there an official app recommended by Ikea that is specifically suitable for PLATSA? Or which applications would you recommend to accurately represent space, measurements, and options? It is also important to me that the program is not too complicated to use, as I don’t want to use professional CAD software. Thanks in advance!

The PLATSA range itself also has a detailed view with dimensions on the IKEA website, which you can use alongside the planner

Thanks, that sounds good. I'll take a look.

Oh yes, I can only recommend the IKEA 3D Planner!

Is there also an overview somewhere of the exact measurements of the individual PLATSA components in the planner? I want to make sure I don’t overlook any dimensions, especially regarding variable widths or depths.

Yes, in the IKEA Home Planner you can click on each module to see the exact dimensions, usually height, width, and depth. At the same time, you can freely move these modules around the room to check if everything really fits.

If that’s not enough, I recommend opening the official PLATSA product description on IKEA’s site at the same time. There you will find precise measurements and all available variants clearly listed.

Just a quick check for understanding: Are you mainly looking to place the furniture virtually in your space, or are you seeking an app that also covers the complete planning, including installation and removal of the furniture? Because that can significantly affect the choice of the right software.

Yes, exactly. I want to place the furniture virtually in my room, check the measurements, and experiment with different combinations.

A kind of room planner focused on PLATSA that shows as realistically as possible how everything will look and displays the measurements accurately.

Then the Ikea 3D Planner is clearly your best option. It is specifically designed for cases like this and includes all PLATSA variations. Simply measure your space, transfer the dimensions to scale, and assemble the modules.
