# How to Create Your First Floor Plan
## Everything you need to know to create a floor plan in the magicplan app.
With magicplan, you can create accurate and professional floor plans with ease. The app simplifies the process and empowers professionals and homeowners alike by combining the power of augmented reality, an intuitive interface, and customizable export options.
You can learn how to create a complete floor plan below.

#### Create a Project
Before you can add floors and rooms, you must first create a project within the app. Here’s how to do it:
1. Enter the home screen of the app.
2. Tap the + New Project icon.
3. You will be brought to the Project Dashboard where you can add project details, including project name, description, and address.
