Place the furniture first. Then enter Interior Designer, right-click the installed object, choose one of its available colors, and apply the design changes. The recolor is not chosen from the furniture shop's display model, and moving the item normally is not the same as opening its color controls.

Before you start

  • You must control the home, office, or business interior.
  • The item must be unpacked and installed, not sitting in a delivery box.
  • Keep enough cash available for the design charge shown before you apply it.
  • Use a mouse control that can perform the game's secondary-click action.

Step-by-step

  1. Enter the room containing the furniture.
  2. Open Interior Designer from the in-building interface.
  3. Move the pointer over the installed furniture.
  4. Right-click the item.
  5. Select the color or color channel the object exposes.
  6. Review the pending design cost.
  7. Press the apply/payment control to commit the changes.

The developer's direct answer confirms the essential interaction: installed furniture is recolored from Interior Designer with a right-click. Community reports also confirm that selecting a color without applying the paid design batch does not save it.

Cost and time

The interface shows the current price before confirmation. The amount varies by item and selected change, so an old screenshot is not a reliable 1.0 price list. The visual edit is immediate after the batch is applied; it does not require a furniture delivery.

How to know it worked

  • the item displays the selected color after leaving its edit control;
  • the pending Interior Designer total returns to its normal state after applying; and
  • the new appearance remains after exiting design mode.

If you are preparing a reusable blueprint, save or update the blueprint after the final colors are applied.

Common problems

Right-click does nothing

Confirm that you are in Interior Designer, not ordinary furniture-placement mode, and that the object is installed. Try a clearly recolorable object such as a desk or cabinet to determine whether the limitation belongs to that specific item.

The color preview appears but does not stay

Apply the pending design changes. The older workflow explicitly required the payment button after choosing colors.

Interior Designer is missing

Make sure you are inside an interior you control. If the in-building window is off-screen or absent, reset UI windows from the game's options and re-enter the property.

The store sample has a color you cannot select

Showroom furniture can be presented as a customized display. The item you buy arrives in its own default setup, and not every display variation is necessarily exposed as a player option.

Furniture color versus walls and floors

Right-clicking an object changes that object's supported color. Wall and floor finishes use the Interior Designer material tools instead. The EA 0.6 overhaul added easier copying and whole-surface filling for interior materials, but those are separate controls from object recoloring.

If an object has no useful palette, the meaningful alternatives are to choose a different model, hide it within a coordinated layout, or replace it. Do not spend repeatedly expecting an unsupported object to gain new color channels.
