Thank you, Tomasz. I will look into that. Our goal is to represent department masses on a designated rectangular floor plan to show percentages of department areas in a way that “fits” on the floor plan. This would be a visual to see the size of departments on the plan and less about adjacencies.
In our current state, we have this represented in two ways:
- Department masses laid out in a grid, but there are spaces between them and not representative of the total size of the floor area
- Department masses represented as long, skinny masses within a rectangular floor plan. They are like long “stripes” of departments, all with an equal length and their width representing the percentage of area on the floor plan. This is close, but the stripes are somewhat distracting for thinking of this as a floor plan and not just a bar graph.
Hopefully I have explained that clearly. Thoughts?
