While graph-theoretic approaches have proven effective for floorplan generation, existing algorithms generally focus on defining the boundary of the plan or different room shapes, lacking the investigation of designing circulation space within a floorplan. However, the circulation design in architectural planning is a crucial factor that affects the functionality and efficiency of areas within a building. This paper presents a graph-theoretic approach for integrating circulation within a floorplan. In this study, we use plane graphs to represent floorplans and develop graph algorithms to incorporate various types of circulation within a floorplan as follows:  \ni. The first phase generates a spanning circulation, that is, a corridor leading to each room using a circulation graph.  \nii. Subsequently, using an approximation algorithm, the circulation space is minimized, that is, generation of minimum circulation space covering all the rooms, thereby enhancing space utilization in the floorplan.  \niii. Furthermore, customized circulations are generated to cater to user preferences, distinguishing between public and private spaces within the floorplan.  \nIn addition to the theoretical framework, we have implemented our algorithms in Python and developed a user-friendly graphical interface (GUI), enabling seamless integration of our algorithms into architectural design processes.  \nIntroduction  \nThe increasing demand for residential and commercial buildings has amplified the need for technological solutions that can streamline design and planning processes. Among these advancements, graph-theoretic techniques (Wang et al., 2018; Upasani et al., 2020; Shekhawat et al., 2021a; Bisht et al., 2022) for the automated generation of floorplans have gained significant attention in architectural design and space planning. This paper focuses on one critical aspect of floorplans: circulation spaces, or corridors, which are essential for ensuring efficient access to various parts of a building while maintaining privacy.  \nTo address this need, we present an application designed to assist architects and designers by automating the construction of circulation spaces within floorplans. While it does not analyze circulation patterns, the application efficiently constructs them wherever required, significantly reducing time and eliminating the need for complex manual calculations. As a complementary tool, it aims to enhance workflows by providing fast and customizabl","cbCaikh5YeGbYJOu","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikh5YeGbYJOu","pdf",3790147,25,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Spanning Circulation\n## Minimal Circulation\n## Remove Corridor Feature\n## Public and Private Preferences","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the paper address regarding floorplan generation?\",\"answer\":\"Existing floorplan generation methods often focus on boundaries or room shapes, while not investigating how to design circulation space (corridors) within a floorplan.
