Furniture fitting in a room is not enough: account for the space needed to use it and move around it.
Three kinds of space
Distinguish between the floor area an item occupies, the area needed to use it and the routes people take through the room. A bed might fit mathematically but leave no comfortable access to the wardrobe.
A clear width around 60 cm may be a starting point for evaluating some secondary passages, but it is not a universal minimum and not an accessibility standard. Requirements vary with people, mobility equipment, furniture and local regulations.
Think through everyday actions
- Beds: allow for getting in and out and making the bed.
- Wardrobes: include the swing of doors and pull-out drawers.
- Tables: consider chairs when pulled away from the table.
- Sofas: keep entrances and routes to balconies clear.
- Stairs: represent the full footprint and keep access routes clear.
Start with larger pieces
Place beds, cabinets and sofas before side tables or accessories. Then trace typical journeys between the entrance, window, storage and work area. Try opening each door and drawer in your imagined layout.
What CasaExacta checks
EspacioExacto can identify overlapping elements and some placement conflicts. It cannot verify every door swing, ergonomic requirement, accessibility standard or safety regulation. Compare alternative layouts and check critical dimensions in the real room.
