	3D floor plans are much more immersive than your average 2D design. Most of the time, a 2D floor plan only includes the absolute basics. Simple lines show the main walls of the structure and demonstrate the layout of any other static features, like stairs, doors, and appliances. It’s pretty rare for 2D floor plans to include things like furniture or decorations. They’re easy to create, but they’re not at all immersive and they won’t evoke any emotion during a presentation.		3D floor plans are much more immersive than your average 2D design.

While a 2D floor plan can only show the top, front, and right half of an object, a 3D floor plan can be made on all three axes (x, y, and z). While 2D floor plans are a bit more affordable than 3D plans, they also lack adaptability and intuitiveness in their design. There’s something to be said for the quality of a floor plan that can inherently show so many more details than a black and white bird’s eye view design.
