Smarter and Faster Floor Plans

We've rolled out a major set of improvements designed to make creating floor plans and architectural drawings faster and easier. From brand-new symbols and templates to reorganized libraries and performance boosts, these updates save you time, simplify your workflow, and give you more modern tools to bring your ideas to life.

Updated Room and Building Outlines

Skip the hassle of resizing rooms or starting from scratch. You can find a wider selection of common room sizes to make building floor plans a little quicker. Just drag-and-drop one of the updated room outlines to get started.

The new building outlines now feature more common building shapes including non-rectangular options to make creating site plans faster. Just drag-and-drop the right building outline to your plan to create accurate site plans faster.

New Modern Elevation Symbols

We've added over 300 new elevation shapes across multiple categories to help you create polished, professional elevation plans:

Bathrooms
Bedrooms
Living Rooms
Dining Rooms
Commercial Kitchens
Household Appliances
Lighting
Shelves and Cabinets
Walls, Doors, and Windows

New Drafting and Markup Libraries

Create professional blueprints with the newly added standard architectural draft symbols. Use the new markup library to design architectural drawings with call-outs and highlight details and feedback.

New and Updated Floor Plan Templates

Jumpstart your next project with the help of one of the new house plans for popular ranch-style and open-concept homes.

We also updated floor plan templates for stores, restaurants, and hospitals to help you design more modern spaces.

New Fire Pre-Plan Templates and Examples

If you work for a fire department or an organization preparing emergency response plans, the updated fire pre-plan template and examples will help you get started faster.

Create a site plan with key emergency details like access points, hydrants, sprinkler systems, utility disconnects, and fire department connections clearly marked for faster and safer incident response.

Restructured Symbol Libraries

Finding the right symbol is now simpler than ever. All floor plan symbols have been reorganized into a streamlined collection of libraries. The improved categories and symbol structure make it easier to browse or search for exactly what you need.

The latest update also gives you more control over how symbols are displayed in libraries. Choose between a compact vertical view with tooltips or a horizontal layout that shows names right beside each thumbnail. This makes it easier to find and select the exact symbol you need at a glance.

Performance Improvements

Work faster with smoother rendering of images, grids, rulers, and effects. You should see big performance improvements especially for complex floor plans with embedded images.
