typical furniture layout

Class Assignment - Furniture Specification
Using your furniture plans, start numbering all of your furniture that you will be specifying for your Shipping Container building.
The legend for labeling is as follows..
C=Chair
D=Desk
T=Table (includes dining, conference, end tables, etc.)
S=Sofa
B=Bed
(for items like dressers, cabinets, or special circumstances use the first 2-3 letters for these.)
start labeling on the first floor, label on furniture that will be purchased (this does not include built-in or custom pieces), and work your way around the space in an orderly fashion.

I have enclosed a typical layout below...this is very basic. If you would like to do it a different way you may, as long as it is organized and easy to read!
