Automated generation of floorplans with non-rectangular rooms

Existing approaches (in particular graph theoretic) for generating floorplans focus on constructing floorplans for given adjacencies without considering boundary layout or room shapes. With recent developments in designs, it is demanding to consider multiple constraints while generating floorplan layouts. In this paper, we study graph theoretic properties which guarantee the presence of different shaped rooms within the floorplans. Further, we present a graph-algorithms based application, developed in Python, for generating floorplans with given input room shapes. The proposed application is useful in creating floorplans for a given graph with desired room shapes mainly, L, T, F, C, staircase, and plus-shape. Here, the floorplan boundary is always rectangular. In future,we aim to extend this work to generate any (rectilinear) room shape and floor plan boundary for a given graph.
