The brief asks for 82 m² of rooms inside a 155 m² footprint. In the first generated option the rooms take 133.4 m², leaving about 21.6 m² (14%) for halls, corridors and walls. Spare area is shared out, so most rooms end up larger than their minimum. Areas are measured on the plan outline, not as usable floor after wall finishes.
Compared with the standard 15 × 30 m plot
Against the standard 15 × 30 m plot site plan, this template has 35 m² more floor area (155 m² against 120 m²) and an L-shaped footprint instead of a rectangle.
