Creating a floor plan is something that your interior designer or your architect will do when designing your home. You do not need to learn how to create a professional floor plan, but it is useful to learn how to play around with them to get the best layout for your home.
Experimenting with floor plans allows you to try out lots of different layouts, furniture arrangements, and even lighting options without actually dragging around furniture or building walls or doing anything more labour-intensive than lifting a pen.
