ABSTRACT:
A floor plan evaluation method by which a floor plan can be quantitatively evaluated. The floor plan evaluation method includes first extracting a plurality of specified elements, which are specified in advance from data on a floor plan which is made automatically by, e.g., a floor planner, second obtaining an individual evaluation value on each of a plurality of individual evaluation items on the basis of the plurality of specified elements extracted in the first step, and third calculating an integrated evaluation value on the floor plan on the basis of a plurality of individual evaluation values obtained in the second step. Then, a plurality of integrated evaluation values obtained by executing the first to third operations for a plurality of floor plans are compared with one another to relatively evaluate the plurality of floor plans.
