Types of floor
plans
Floor plans are essential
in describing most real estate properties to prospective
buyers, renters or to companies looking to lease space.
For office properties, we usually show the columns,
but not the cubicles. This makes the floor plans less
cluttered. Floor plans are also crucial for residential
properties, hotels, supermarkets and stores.
Redraw floor
plans?
There is a great temptation
to use simple black and white copies of floor plans.
Even on high-end websites, we see poor quality scans
of floor plans. (See “Web Graphics”).
What we recommend
Our position is that the higher
the quality of the presentation, the more watchful
we have to be for something spoiling the positive
impression. If there is only one floor plan, like
on a website, definitely redraw it. We will create
high quality floor plans on tabs and in the front,
and place additional black and white floor plans in
an appendix.
