Miscellaneous and decorative items

Depending on the manufacturer’s catalog that you work with, the Miscellaneous Item List may offer a wide variety of items that you can use to complement your design. We invite you to browse through the ROOM_DEC (numerous complementary items), ROOM_FUR, and ROOM catalogs to view the large selection of furniture and decorative items.

Complete the following steps to add decorative items to your design:
