12m2

12 square meters, written as 12 m^2, is a unit of area in the metric system. It indicates a surface whose size is twelve square meters and is commonly used to describe floor areas in buildings, rooms, and plots. The symbol m^2 denotes square meters, a standard unit across science, engineering, and real estate.

Geometrically, 12 m^2 corresponds to a square with side length equal to the square root of 12, about 3.46 meters. Any rectangle with length and width whose product is 12 m^2 also has an area of 12 m^2.

In imperial units, 12 m^2 is roughly 129 square feet. This conversion is often used in real estate listings and planning documents to help non-metric audiences understand the size.

Applications: In housing and design, 12 m^2 commonly describes small rooms, studios, or compact apartments. The figure measures surface area only; it does not specify height, volume, or usable space, which depend on layout, furniture, and built-in features.

Standards vary by country. Depending on local rules, the reported area might be net usable floor area or gross floor area, and components such as walls, balconies, or shared corridors may be included or excluded.
