Abstract

Real-time generation of natural-looking floor plans is vital in games with dynamic environments. This paper presents an algorithm to generate suburban house floor plans in real-time. The algorithm is based on the work presented in [1]. However, the corridor placement is redesigned to produce floor plans similar to real houses. Moreover, an optimization stage is added to find a corridor placement with the minimum used space, an approach that is designed to mimic the real-life practices to minimize the wasted spaces in the design. The results show very similar floor plans to the ones designed by an architect.
