Choose the width, height, and measurement unit (feet or meters) for your floor plan in the right panel. Enable grid snapping for precise alignment.

3. Add walls and text
Use the Wall tool (W) to draw walls between rooms. Walls automatically snap to horizontal or vertical alignment. Add text labels with the Text tool (T) for annotations.

Open the Furniture palette (F) and browse 58+ items across six categories: living room, bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, office, and outdoor. Click any item to place it on the canvas, then drag to position.

Is my data private and secure?
Your floor plan data never leaves your browser. All processing happens client-side on your device, so your designs and measurements stay completely private.
