Ooh, I love it! I absolutely love making floor plans, and looking up floor plans, and any kind of logistical stuff like that. Floor plans are awesome. Rock on, anon!

Ooh, I love when people take the time and effort to make an accurate floor plan for a commonly used space in a show/movie I like. I just really love being able to see it all so tangibly laid out like that.

Which is funny, because I'm actually really bad at visualizing stuff like that in my mind, and I am constantly imagining sets in wildly inaccurate ways. Like, I try to tell myself, "No. You know the stairs to the second floor don't come in from the left side of the living room couch. You know they are in a completely different area entirely." But the part of my brain that visualizes things just won't listen to me.

I love floor plans! (Granted, I work in the architecture field, so I'm surrounded by them all day). They're so much fun! And with a lot of shows you wonder WTF this building would never exist!

Like others have said, this is great! I really like getting this kind of perspective on movie/tv set layouts, and especially seeing things like that random window.

I love making floor plans. I definitly have mapped out the living spaces of all of my OCs and some fandom characters as well.

I used to draw floor plans for places I'd read about in fantasy novels (and maps, too, if the author didn't supply them). I loved figuring out where things would be based on descriptions and all just filling out the physical world the characters inhabited.

I was really inspired by Karen Wynn Fonstad's Atlas of Middle Earth and Atlas of Pern but wished she could be more imaginative when it came to buildings and floor plans. (Everything is a rectangle! Rivendell? ALL RECTANGLES ALL THE TIME!)

I like browsing for floor plans and building them in The Sims. I've got an entire folder just for collected floor plans that I want to build. Sometimes I'll build them as closely as I can to the source, and sometimes I just mimic the building design and then do whatever with the interior decor. Whether I move sims into them and which sims I do (premade sims, character sims, or something I slapped together in five minutes in Create-A-Sim?) is likewise whatever I feel like at the time.

I like that building design, btw, but I can't place the source series???

I think "Rufus' cabin" is from Supernatural, but I'd have to Google to make sure. It's been a while.

I love it when fans take the time to study and sort out stuff like this :D. It can be helpful for other fans who might want to know these details but aren't as good at drawing this stuff :p.

I like studying characters' homes sometimes, too. The way they're decorated, the type of home they have (apartment, mansion, small house, etc.), things like that, it can be an interesting insight into the character in so many ways :).

I do this for most of my masturbation fantasies. They tend to take place in houses, but it's important that I know how the house is laid out. 1950s split-level? Victorian rowhouse extensively remodeled in the 60s? If A is telling B to go into the bedroom and assume the position, will that involve stairs? Is there a basement? Finished or unfinished? Soundproof or not? How much might a passerby be able to see through the picture window in the living room?

This is doubly important, because if I don't have a plan, my brain will default to the layout of one of the places I've lived, and it gets tangled up with existing emotional associations, and it's a real mood killer.

I remain perpetually flummoxed by the layout of the Bunker, so I completely understand!
