```{figure} ../../images/houseviewer_interface.png
```

The house viewer allows your to see your house layout at a glance and
move/rotate rooms.

The functionality provided by the following functions was done from scratch but
heavily inspired in Skunkworks original "layout_finder.simba".
In other words, it provides you the ability to load the house layout from the
viewer into {ref}`House` and it's {ref}`HouseLoader`.
