3. FreeCAD
Actually, FreeCAD is a parametric modeler, which is usually used by engineers to design objects, components, tools or others. But at some showcases that I saw in the forum. There are users who make a building and home project using FreeCAD. This software can be used for more complex home design projects and architectures.
