What is a Floor Plan?

A floor plan is a scaled diagram of a room or building viewed from above. It shows the relationships between rooms, spaces, and physical features at one level of a structure.

Why Use an Online Floor Plan Tool?

Traditional floor plan software like AutoCAD requires years of training and expensive licenses. Online tools like Geoniks let you create professional floor plans in minutes — directly in your browser.

Step-by-Step: Creating Your First Floor Plan

1. Start with a Template

Geoniks offers 30+ ready-made templates — studios, apartments, houses, villas, and commercial spaces. Pick one that matches your project and customize it.

2. Draw Your Walls

Use the wall tool to draw walls with real measurements. Click to set the start point, move to set the end point. Walls snap to 45° angles by default.

3. Add Rooms and Labels

Once your walls are in place, add room labels using the Zone tool. This helps you organize your space and generate accurate area calculations.

4. Switch to 3D

Click the 3D button to see your floor plan come to life. Rotate, zoom, and explore your design from any angle.

5. Export Your Plan

Export your finished floor plan as PDF for clients, DXF for AutoCAD, or GLB for 3D applications.
