What is the purpose of a floor plan?

A floor plan is a scale drawing of a building or a room as seen from above. Its purpose is to provide a visual representation and layout of the space, including the location of walls, doors, windows, furniture, and appliances. It is an important tool used in architecture, interior design, and real estate to help visualize and plan the use of space, determine furniture placement, estimate costs, and communicate design ideas.
