Turn the floor plan into a furniture count.

Before you compare the prices
Name the rooms before duplicating their furniture. Check whether the copied zone really needs the same quantities, configurations and table arrangement. Record measured constraints and leave circulation or compliance decisions for the appropriate project professional. The budgeting task is to show which pieces belong where and which assumptions still affect the total.
