A single-room 2D planner with exact footprints, overlap warnings and A/B comparison.

RoomKind turns a rectangular room into a small layout workspace. You can start from a bedroom, living room, home office or empty plan, then replace the illustrative measurements with your own. The value is in seeing and comparing furniture footprints; it is not an architectural or accessibility certification tool.

What it does

• Use a rectangular room with edges from 100 to 2,000 cm; switch centimetres/inches without changing the saved physical dimensions.
• Add up to 50 items from a 13-type library: sofa, double/single bed, desk, dining/coffee table, chair, wardrobe, bookcase, bedside table, rug, door zone or custom rectangle.
• Move items by pointer, touch, arrow keys or coordinate fields. Shift plus an arrow moves the selected item by one centimetre.
• Rotate by 90 degrees, duplicate, delete and use 50-step undo/redo.
• Inspect actual rectangle intersections. Rugs are decorative layers; door zones are user-defined reminder regions.
• Furniture coverage uses the union of floor rectangles, excluding rugs and door regions, so overlaps are not double-counted.
• Capture an A/B layout snapshot and swap layouts; comparison is managed separately from undo history.
• Open/save editable JSON, export an SVG drawing, or use browser print/PDF for a drawing and item list.

A practical workflow

1. Measure the real room and furniture, then choose a starter layout.
2. Set room edges and add or resize furniture footprints.
3. Try positions with coordinates or dragging; inspect overlap and boundary warnings.
4. Capture an alternative, compare the two arrangements, and save JSON before leaving.

A worked use case

Try a desk beside a bed, capture that arrangement, then move the desk to another wall and compare. If shrinking a wall would push furniture outside the room, the change is rejected until you move or resize those items.

What you can keep

• Editable JSON, up to 200 KB import
• SVG drawing
• Browser Print / Save as PDF

Plans and comparison snapshots live in this tab. SVG is a drawing, not a substitute for the editable JSON backup.

What it does not promise

• Only one rectangle room and rectangle footprints are modelled; door swing, stairs and delivery routes are not calculated.
• Coverage is not a safety, ergonomics or accessible-clearance score. Confirm real doors, clearances and product sizes.
• The PDF is a readable plan, not a guaranteed scale technical drawing.
