How the result changes with Room Length

Room Length: Length of the room measured wall to wall in feet.
Room Width: Width of the room measured wall to wall in feet.
Number of Doors: Count all doorways including closets; each needs ~3 ft clearance for swing.
Number of Windows: Windows require setback space to avoid blocking light and access.
Furniture Pieces: Total major furniture items (sofa, table, bookcase, etc.).

Total Room Area: Total floor area of the room.
Walkable Area: Open floor space remaining after furniture and clearance zones.
Furniture Coverage: Percentage of floor area occupied by furniture. Aim for 40–60%.
Traffic Flow Rating: Rating from 1 (cramped) to 5 (excellent flow) based on walkable space.
Max Furniture Pieces: Maximum furniture items while keeping at least 40% walkable area.
