Route found

One of the planner’s starting layouts for small rooms. Shaded sky blue: the 36″ route it found.

Every rule, shown

We don’t just say “it fits.” We show the inches.

Each planner checks the furniture against the walls and the other pieces, draws a hinged door fully open and looks for a clear way through. The widths below are where each planner starts; change them to test your own room.
