What these pages are, and what they are not
Starting layouts, not plan sets
Each page describes a handful of example layouts in words: the rooms, an approximate size, who the layout suits and the trade-off to watch. There are no construction drawings to buy here.
Your own version as an image
Any layout can be sent to the floor plan generator as an editable brief. It returns a labelled 2D floor plan image with approximate dimensions, which you can refine by changing the brief.
A planning aid
Sizes are approximate and nothing here is checked against building codes. Use it to settle the room list and the arrangement, then take the result to a designer, architect or builder.
Generate your own
Turn a layout into your own floor plan
Edit the brief — sizes, rooms, what sits next to what — then open it in the floor plan generator. Nothing runs until you press Generate there, and the credit cost is shown first.
House plan questions

Open it in the floor plan generator, change the rooms and sizes, and generate a labelled plan image. The cost is shown before anything runs.
