What are 2D Interior Drawings?
These are detailed technical plans that show the layout and spatial arrangement of your property’s interior from a top-down perspective.
- Space Optimization: They provide the mathematical proof that your furniture, storage, and circulation paths fit perfectly within the room.
- Technical Detail: Unlike a basic sketch, these plans include precise measurements for partition walls, doorways, and built-in elements.
- Contractor Guidance: They act as a precise instruction manual for builders, electricians, and plumbers to ensure everything is installed in the correct location.
- Approval Support: These drawings are often a mandatory requirement for HMO applications and flat conversions to prove compliance with minimum room size standards.
Types Of 2D Interior Drawing
Certificate of Lawfulness – Proposed Development
(CLOPUD)
Get legal peace of mind before you build. This certificate confirms that your planned extension, loft conversion, or outbuilding falls under “permitted development.” It’s a vital step for ensuring your investment is legally protected before work begins.
Certificate of Lawfulness: Existing Development
(CLEUD)
Formalize what’s already there. A CLEUD confirms that an existing structure or use of land is lawful. This is essential for works completed without prior planning permission that have been in place for more than four years (or ten years for changes of use).
When You Need 2D Interior Drawings
You typically require these professional drawings when your project involves more than just a fresh coat of paint. Common scenarios include:

- HMO & Flat Conversions: Proving that rooms meet the legal space standards for multiple occupants.
- Bespoke Kitchen & Bathroom Design: Mapping out the exact placement of cabinetry, appliances, and fixtures.
