Floor Plans Sydney

How do you read a floor plan?

Something to remember when you read any floor plan design is that you are viewing the property, home or commercial premises from above. Kind of like a bird's-eye view perspective. It's like someone has taken the roof off and you are appearing straight down over the top.

 

Keep this in mind when you are viewing the layout. I find it's always easiest to keep the front of the property towards the bottom of your view and the rear of the property at the top of your view. This way the left-hand side of the property still remains the left-hand side and the right-hand side of the property still have remains the right-hand side.

 

How to create a floor plan

The easiest way to create any floor plan is the starting at the corner of the property. By starting in the corner of the property you have 2 distances to be concerned with, length and width. These will run in only two directions from you when you are on the corner of the property. If you start in the centre of the property you will have 4 directions to cope with which can be a lot more daunting and difficult to understand. You need to also draw one room at a time.

​

Drawing multiple rooms or even half rooms takes a lot of experience and would not be advised when you are learning to draw your first few plans. Sticking to just one room as you go and joining them is far easier.  Also, I find it easier once you have drawn one complete room to finish the room by way of windows doors and benches etc. This way you don't have to revisit that room once you have finished.

 

Each room should consist of a few basic design elements. Most rooms are square or rectangular and therefore require a length and a width measurement. Only on occasion where a room is L-shaped that you may require more measurements. Once you have your2 measurements then place your window door and any other fittings the room has. Now you may move on to the adjoining room and continue the walls in the correct directions linking each room together.

Start off simply. A basic two-bedroom apartment or small 3 bedroom home is the best way to start your floor plan drawing career.
