      Frequently Asked Questions

      Measure the length and width of the room in meters. Multiply them: Area = Length × Width. For example, a 5 m × 4 m room = 20 m². For rooms with alcoves, split the floor into rectangles, calculate each, and add them up — or use the L-Shape tab above.
      Multiply square meters by 10.764. For example, 20 m² × 10.764 = 215.28 ft². To convert the other way, multiply square feet by 0.0929. This calculator shows both conversions automatically.
      One square meter is roughly the size of a large beach towel — a square measuring 100 cm × 100 cm (about 3.28 ft × 3.28 ft). A typical parking space is about 12–15 m².
      Select "Feet & Inches" from the input unit dropdown. Then type 15'6", 15' 6 1/2", 6" (inches only), or simply 15 (feet). Fractions like 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 are supported.
      A typical bedroom is 10–14 m², a master bedroom 16–22 m², a living room 18–30 m². A one-bedroom apartment averages 35–50 m², two-bedroom 55–80 m². A standard European home is 80–120 m².
      Results are approximate. Verify measurements before purchasing materials.

      Calculates area for 7 shapes (rectangle, circle, triangle, trapezoid, ellipse, parallelogram, L-shape) with live SVG preview and 5 input unit systems including feet & inches with fractions. Results show area, perimeter, and automatic conversion to m², ft², cm², yd², in², hectares and acres — all copyable with one click.

      Built-in cost estimator multiplies area by price per m² in any currency. Material calculator estimates paint (liters by coverage and coats), tiles (count with gap and waste %), or flooring (m² with cutting waste).

      Multiple rooms mode lets you add rooms to a running list, showing total area and per-room cost breakdown. Six quick presets (bathroom, bedroom, living room, kitchen, master bedroom, balcony) fill in typical dimensions instantly.

      Calculation history saves to localStorage on demand, with up to 20 entries. Includes a quick reference table of common room sizes and a 5-question FAQ section.
