The brief asks for 104 m² of rooms inside a 201 m² footprint. In the first generated option the rooms take 143.3 m², leaving about 57.7 m² (29%) 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 four-bedroom family house
Against the four-bedroom family house floor plan, this template has 3 m² less floor area (201 m² against 204 m²), an L-shaped footprint instead of a rectangle and has no en-suite and wC.
