Room schedule
| Room | Requested minimum | In the generated plan |
|---|---|---|
| Living room | 20 m² | 28 m² |
| Kitchen | 9 m² | 9.1 m² |
| Main bedroom | 11 m² | 11 m² |

The brief asks for 45 m² of rooms inside a 63 m² footprint. In the first generated option the rooms take 54.6 m², leaving about 8.4 m² (13%) for halls, corridors and walls. Spare area is shared out, so most rooms end up larger than their minimum. Areas are measured on the plan outline, not as usable floor after wall finishes.
Compared with the two-bedroom starter home
Against the two-bedroom starter home floor plan, this template has 17 m² less floor area (63 m² against 80 m²) and has no bedroom 2.
