Go Design drafting services in the Sutherland Shire define what is meant by a floor plan
Our drafting services in the Sutherland Shire explains that a detailed floor plan makes it much easier to check if the space is suitable for its intended purpose, allowing designer and home owner to work through any potential challenges before moving forward into further planning or building stages.
Floor plans don’t hold enough information for builders to actually construct a home or other structure, however a floor plan is vital to showing a room layout and offering a conceptual starting point.
Depending on the size of the building, floor plans are typically drawn at scales of between 1:200 and 1:20. Different line types, colours and weights can be used to differentiate between the types of drawn information they include. Floor plans can be drawn for whole buildings, a single floor of a building, or just a single room. The more detailed the floor plan is in terms of layout, fittings and so on, the more useful and instructive it will be for the project.
A floor plan is a scale drawings that show the relationship between rooms, spaces and physical features viewed from above. They provide a way to visualise how people will move through the space and show the big picture of living, work, and outdoor spaces. In any space where people live, work, shop, or gather, the arrangement within rooms and the flow from one space to another make a difference in the feel and utility of the environment.
