Drawing architectural plans is not only useful in describing spaces, but "planning" how to use those spaces. A recent episode in my own life brought this fact back to me - when we went shopping for some outdoor furniture. Before we went shopping, we measured out our deck and took the plan with us. We measured the furniture options and made small paper cut-outs to scale that we could move around on the plan. We selected some light metal pieces, called "Eos" we found at Design Within Reach. Though I have not practiced architecture for many years, I realized, I never stopped using these kinds of drawings.
