How this works
Not an architectural plan: each rectangle's width and height are proportional to the listed room dimensions at one shared scale; room positions are not the real layout. Hover or focus a room for its exact size.
Furniture scenes are drawn to the same scale to show what fits: a bed sized to the room (king/queen/double/single) with nightstands and a dresser, bathtub→shower→toilet+vanity by space, sofa + coffee table + armchairs, counter + island, dining set… centred as a group. Placement is illustrative, not the real arrangement.
