The covered patio the low sun still reaches

Plan the room before you buy the furniture.

Put a table, the chairs and anything else on the plan at its real size. The plan checks there is room to pull a chair out and walk past it. An umbrella, a sail, a screen or a planter is traced like everything else on the plan, so it changes the shade it would change. A sofa does not.

NoteThis is a demonstration. You can lay out a room here, and nothing is saved.

When and where it is read

Reading at

5:00 PM·October
NoteNo door is marked on this plan, so the walk to the room and the floor outside the door cannot be checked. Mark the door on the plan.

Shadows are drawn for 5:00 PM on October 30. Squares are doors; dots are the spots readings are taken from.

Start from a room

Add one piece

Traced pieces (umbrellas, sails, pergolas, screens, planters, trees) change the shade, the privacy and the wind readings. Everything else is drawn and checked for room, and changes no reading.

On the plan

Nothing placed yet. Start from a room or add a piece.

Room to move

Nothing that stands on the floor has been placed yet, so there is nothing to measure between.

The plan in words

  • Nothing has been placed on this plan yet.

What this room is for

Pale slab has no uses written down yet. A use and its hours are what every reading of this room is about.

Times are this place's own clock, whatever time zone you are reading it in.

A demonstration keeps none of this.

One change at a time

Nothing on this plan changes a reading yet. Add an umbrella, a sail, a pergola, a screen, a planter or a tree and it is read here against the same plan without it.

What you decide about this plan

Nothing recorded yet. The model does not choose one of these for you.

A demonstration does not keep a decision. Map your own place and the choice stays on this device.
