Get ready to elevate your Procreate skills with Studio Brushes.

Canvas Setup and Scale

Creating a well-scaled canvas is the first step in transforming your bathroom design ideas into reality. Here's how:

Canvas Size: Start with a large canvas, typically around 3000 x 3000 pixels at 300 DPI. This resolution ensures clarity when adding intricate details.
Measurement Guide: Use Procreate's grid feature to maintain scale. Set the grid to centimeters or inches, whichever you’re comfortable with for your floor plans.

Brushes and Settings

The brushes you choose can make or break your design. Utilize these brushes and settings from Studio Brushes to your advantage:

Procreate Interior Design Brushes: Choose brushes that simulate actual materials. For instance, the Mega Expansion Pack includes over 304+ brushes tailored for intricate textures.
Pressure Sensitivity: Adjust brush settings for pressure sensitivity to refine edges and layered textures.

Using Room Layouts/Floor Plans

Starting with an accurate floor plan is crucial:

Pre-Made Plans: Incorporate one of the 21+ floor plans from Studio Brushes’ collection to save time.
Custom Layouts: Custom-design your room layouts using the grid and measurement tools in Procreate for precise dimensions.

Applying Wall & Floor Textures

Textures bring a space to life. Here's how to use wall and floor textures effectively:

Wall Textures: Use the 190+ wall textures available to depict different finishes—choose between matte, satin, and glossy finishes for walls.
Floor Textures: Apply floor textures from the same collection using drag-and-drop for seamless integration.

Furniture Blocks and Stamps

Use furniture stamps to furnish your bathroom quickly:

Application: Choose from over 200+ PNG furniture stamps. Position them using the transform tool for correct perspective.
Size Adjustments: Pre-scale your furniture using Procreate’s resize feature to maintain proportions.

Lighting and Shadows Pass

Presentation Board/Export

Compiling your design into a presentation board can make your concepts professional:

Export: Use high-quality exports for client or peers review. Choose PDF for print or JPEG for digital portfolios. Read more: Effortless Presentation Boards Using Procreate Tools.
