Furniture Clearance Configurator

You're checking a residential floor plan and every piece of furniture has a clearance zone — the space you need to pull out a chair, open a cabinet, walk past a bed, or sit down at a desk. These clearances are what make a room feel right or feel cramped, and they're what plan reviewers measure. This configurator draws furniture in plan with pass/fail clearance zones so you can check your layout before the client moves in.

Purpose: reveals minimum room dimensions for each furniture arrangement — and how much wheelchair access actually costs in square footage.

Next improvement: The likeliest next improvement is adding door swing conflicts — checking whether a door leaf collides with furniture or blocks a required clearance zone when open.

Future: Kitchen Work Triangle Configurator — sink, range, and refrigerator placement with NKBA work triangle distances and counter frontage requirements.

Future: Bathroom Layout Configurator — fixture clearances, door swings, and ADA turning radius for residential bathrooms, from IRC P2705 and ADA Standards §603–604.
